Update-Fixed: Blurry Cabin Camera in my CT AWD, anyone else have this issue and know how to fix?

[DarkEye]

My Cabin Camera is blurry. I know in the past it was not blurry like it is now. Anyone else seen this issue and know how to fix it by DIY? I cleared/ran the Camera Calibrations and that did not fix it. Looks like a focus issue.
I have a service appointment scheduled for Tesla to fix it but that is not until Oct 21st. I'm sure this being blurry will affect FSD if and when it comes to the CT. I've searched around the web and have not found a fix.
I've also made sure the cabin camera lens is clean and nothing is stuck to it.

This looks like a lens misalignment. The camera is unable to focus because it is too far/close to the lens cover. I haven't seen that in a Tesla yet, but it'll probably require physically adjusting it. Since it's new, don't try it yourself and set up a service visit. Should be an easy fix, at least!

I have a service appt for October to get it fixed.

Honestly, that may be a benefit. I know when I still had my model Y, the camera was super annoying for FSD because it would yell at me all the time. Maybe the camera being blurry would keep it from registering you super well and prevent that nag.

Or itcouldget mad and lock you out of FSD. Its a toss uplol

My Y had the front sentry mode camera suddenly look blurry a few months back. The camera is between the rearview mirror mount and the windshield. It was caused by offgassing in that space depositing on the lens. I took it in to the Svc Ctr and they knew exactly the cause and got it back to me same day after cleaning it. There was dissassembly of the plastic mirror mount necessary, that's why I didn't want to attempt it myself. I wonder if this is a similar issue with this CT cabin camera.

This is the cabin camera pointing into the cabin at the driver/passenger seats. I've have already tried cleaning the camera lens.

Is yours still blurry after the FSD update?

Yes it is still blurry after the FSD update. I have not tried to use FSD yet to see if it will work with a blurry cabin camera. Going to try it today. Still have Oct 21 service appt to get it fixed.

Mine was blurry before the update but now it's normal. FSD monitoring seems to work ok.

I just checked and mine is still blurry. I wonder if starting a FSD drive will clear it up? I tried doing the camera calibration reset a month ago but that did not help.

Can you think of anything you did besides a new update that cleared you cabin camera up?

I did my first FSD drive today with my blurry cabin camera and that seems to not bother with FSD working.

I need to get better trust in FSD, I'd rather drive the CT myself. It's too slow on back roads, left turns are too sharp and hugs the yellow line to close for my liking.

I finally got my CT cabin camera replaced today by mobile service. Took them 15 minutes to fix it. They also fixed my wiper blade park position (after they replaced wiper motor in Sept) from being parked too far to the right (common issue when wiper motor is replaced).
