Which ones? Just the cabin camera? You said cameras plural so curious. Most here are just having cabin camera issues in this thread.About to have my cameras replaced will report back
The tech spent a good amount of time, more than an hr possibly. It was sunny and my car was parked on the driveway with no shade. He used some black cushions etc etc to block the light and did the IR test. He did say it was harder with a lot of light.The text in bhakan's post of 10 minutes ago I find fascinating is:
"Performed IR test, not able to see it on".
Taken at face value, that is the first acknowledgement by a Tesla service person I've seen that suggests they think there are supposed to be working illuminators in at least some of the cars. It also strongly suggests this tech thought he knew a way to detect if it was working.
As to replacing the Triple camera. I'll speculate that the illuminators are just a pair of of LED's mounted on a board--not readily replaceable by themselves. So perhaps replacing the Triple camera swaps in new illuminators--and also some of what drives or controls them.
Maybe there is hope for the rest of us.

I really do not believe this is a firmware issueTesla service did remote diagnosis and told me it was a firmware issue.
My replacement cameras 100% do NOT have those on my 2021 refresh S and my original but not shielded camera did.Hi All,
You have piqued my interest with the discussion of the Infra-red illumination in the cabin.
Last evening returning from dinner, not quite dark yet, I asked my wife to take a picture
of the cabin camera... It looks to me like the IR illumination is "on."
My wife's phone is an iPhone 13.
I mention this because any of us should be able to take a picture in the evening hours
to show the illumination (or lack of illumination) with our daily cellphone cameras.

Hmmm...That's interesting! They just replaced the Triple camera two days ago and Occupancy camera two weeks ago. Still, when I just took a pic with my Pixel 6 Pro it does not look like what you have posted. See below. I have a 2022 MSLR delivered on 2/20/2022. So, it is possible my car did not get those IR illuminators.Hi All,

Yes. It was darker this evening after 8:30pm in my driveway. The car was on P after I input my PIN in the previous pic. I just went and put on D as for our cars it is just the Drive selection. Now I can see the IR illuminators.Pictures should be in the evening or at dusk with the car running…
I don’t know when the IR lights illuminate…
Maybe not in bright daylight.

No IR lights on mine. It sucks that Tesla delivers half baked product and doesn't properly train their technicians.I'll take a look at mine this evening.
