Follow this guide to replace the rear cameras (wide, ultrawide, and telephoto) in your Google Pixel 9 Pro.
The replacement rear cameras come attached in a housing and must be replaced as one assembly—replacing any one camera means replacing all three.
You may need to replace the rear cameras if they're taking distorted or blurry photos, or not taking photos at all.
You'll need replacement autofocus sensor and rear cover adhesives to complete this repair.
Note: Any repair can compromise the water resistance of your phone. Retaining water resistance after the repair will depend on how well you reapply the rear cover adhesive.
