Just discovered this subreddit and I'm so glad it exists

Looks like a hardware problem. Did you nick the corner on something?

If you want to rule out software completely, try restarting the watch. If you see it on the boot screen it's probably the OLED going bad, or a loose cable.

Ideally. Depends on the update time too. I know flashing ECU tunes requires a battery topper. I've also killed a car battery modding my infotainments firmware so it's totally possible. But most likely Subaru is doing it out of an abundance of caution... Don't want an angry customer coming saying the update killed their battery

It's because they don't want the car battery running flat during installation. Kind of like how your phone requires a minimum battery charge to update

Nice finds! And thanks for kick starting this!

Yeah it's not my cup of tea either, seems to be where design standards are going

SUVs sell better basically. I'd assume the extra ground clearance might allow for more batteries too

Oh, that's a good point! I've had the same mechanical pencil for the past four years.

Huh, that's neat. Alleviates the need for MUX switch it seems.
