If the camera "works" (that is, no more black screen) but doesn't focus, then you may have received a partially defective replacement camera. To be certain, closely inspect the camera flex and connector to insure there is no damage. You may need magnification to see things properly. If it looks good, then similarly inspect the connector on the logic board.

If everything looks good, you will need to either try another, preferably, known-good camera or try your camera in a working housing to determine what is wrong.

Camera will focus now as long as the zoom is x2. Anything below that no focus.
