Not necessarily. The video feed that it shows on the screen is filtered for human consumption and may be a subset of the frames that AP and FSD sees.The bigger question is how does it effect Tesla Vision when AP is on. AP sees the same thing you see.
Maybe..... But IMHO that is a long shot. Seems more like a camera design defect. They would need to drop frames while the blinker is on in AP to ignore the glare. And only do it on models with the defective cameras. Again IMHO that would lower the ability of Tesla Vision to see an object in a timely matter. I highly suspect part of Tesla Vision requires frame comparison and dropping frames would hinder that process.Not necessarily.

I fixed them. I took a dremel to it with with very small cutting wheel and made a small rectangle instead of 2 holes. Gave me plenty of open room to work with and I applied tape over the holes and the mating surface glue on both cameras. I then sealed the cutout with silicone. No more glare. Im happy with the fix.From the video, doesn't look like there is an easy way. The housing appears to be completely sealed from factory (other than the gore patch) and isn't fastened together in a way you can take apart. The ones that they disassemble, they had to use a Dremel to cut around the edge, but they still managed to damage some of it.
From the video it looks like they say the version I have was already the fixed one (as the board is different and doesn't have the holes). I will have to double check when I have the chance if I actually do have glare (as from memory I remember seeing some), but it might have been reflections from the body and not the glare problem others were having. Also possible mine still has some residual glare from around the lens (the translucent glue mentioned in video) and a later revision used black glue instead to completely eliminate it.
The flashing turn signals on the cameras bother us humans, but it probably doesn't bother AP at all. The computer filters the camera input and is designed to detect objects and lines. So I don't think varying lighting levels (aka the blinker flashing on and off) will affect how it works. If it did, I'm sure Tesla would have noticed long ago and changed the repeater design.Maybe..... But IMHO that is a long shot. Seems more like a camera design defect.

nice. I guess if it bothers one, and they mess up, it costs $$ to get it fixed. I know myself with power tool, i dont have surgical precision. will wait or not have turn signals on.I fixed them.

I had my car in last week for the PT sensors and brought up the glare in the repeaters. They compared mine to close VIN and said it is normal. They may change their stance on this but currently I was unable to get them replaced under warrantySomeone posted that Tesla will replace the cameras under warranty if you have this issue.
Mind if I ask what the cost was for the two?I replaced my repeaters over the weekend. Super easy and it's nice to be able to us them at night now.
$130 each from the service center.Mind if I ask what the cost was for the two?
What part numbers did you end up getting?$130 each from the service center.

Turn it off if you don't like it2021 Performance White on White with factory black cameras and trim, and yes this is an issue at night. Honestly, it's pretty ghetto and feels like some shitty aftermarket mod if you ask me.
Nice! Do you have any pictures to help us replicate this?I fixed them. I took a dremel to it with with very small cutting wheel and made a small rectangle instead of 2 holes.

I unfortunately didnt take any pictures. I was a little excited to get them fixed and put back in the car.Nice! Do you have any pictures to help us replicate this?
