Is there a vertical cylinder glass lens there?
There was a thread here with a similar problem.

Yes, the vertical lens is in place.  I have attached some photos of the dial appearance as well as the position of the lamp hood.  Perhaps the dial lamp hood should be more centered vertically and horizontally? If the light hits more to the side of the vertical lens perhaps that causes the lack of focus? The lamp hood is off to one side and also appears to be too high.  I wanted to find out from some experts before attempting to bend the bracket (and with my luck, break it!)  Thanks.
