I just got a Yashica T AF, and it seems to be working fine after some tinkering, except for the focusing. The focus is locked on infinity. Doesn’t matter what I put in front of the camera, the infinity icon pops up in the viewfinder.
I want to try and clean the focus sensor although it looks clean, but I don’t have access to it because of the clear shield in place. I did clean the clear shield, but that did nothing. I feel like pulling off the face and cleaning the sensor, but I’m also afraid of breaking the camera.
Can someone advice me what to do?

Did you do a film test?
Maybe it´s only the display that is wrong and the camera sets the focus correctly.
That would be annoying, but usable.

I did think this. I don’t have any film available, but I plan on picking something up an testing it out.
I would however appreciate if anybody knew a fix? These cameras are so popular it boggles me how’s there’s no repair manuals or repair videos on YouTube on these cameras.

So I got the film back today. All of the frames were unexpectedly out of focus. I should have tested it with landscapes, but it was a rainy day and I was hoping it was just the display icon that was faulty, and was expecting for the indoor shots to come out in focus.
Would anybody know what to check out?
