Car washing mode prevents the automatic wipers from triggering and the charging port from opening, so neither get damaged from the spinning brushes of an automatic car wash. It has nothing to do with whatever caused this issue.
So Tesla says they will have the Full Self Driving very soon now for real, but the car can't figure out by itself it's in a car wash.
Many different brands have a car wash mode for the very same reason. This is not a Tesla thing exclusively.
