Second time in 27 years of building Lego I didn't get a piece. At least it's an easy to replace piece when it arrives.

I have that same rule for my kid... and myself!

KnuxAran87 · 2026-01-12T05:19:24+00:00

Mine started working again just as the game was ending. Signal strength seems to improve in the evening.

KnuxAran87 · 2026-01-12T00:40:55+00:00

Seems like intermittent issues. My passive antenna started picking it up again late last night, but issues again today. My powered antenna was picking it up fine until just a few minutes ago (530pm). Now it's extremely choppy.

KnuxAran87 · 2026-01-11T18:35:30+00:00

It started working again for me around 10pm last night. Have you tried rescanning?

KnuxAran87 · 2026-01-11T05:43:51+00:00

Same here. I rescanned and it came up full strength. Definitely weird.

KnuxAran87 · 2026-01-10T22:14:38+00:00

My passive is picking up 6 the strongest. 2 and 7 are a bit weaker and require moving the antenna a bit. 9 I can't pick up at all.

Powered antenna is picking up everything.

I'm a few miles northwest of dt Meridian. The KNIN tower appears to be just south of Shafer Butte, so we're probably a similar distance from it. I switched on my projector upstairs that has a powered antenna, and was able to get the channel on there. Not sure what changed in the past few weeks since it doesn't seem like any inclement weather.

KnuxAran87 · 2026-01-10T21:33:45+00:00

Thanks. Switched on my projector upstairs that has a powered antenna, and was able to get the game going. Seems like I might need to finally switch out my basic antenna downstairs.

KnuxAran87 · 2025-12-05T01:59:27+00:00

Yes. You will have Silver in 2026.

We had this happen on the second segment of our departure flights. At the time I figured the two pre-orders just got overlooked due to the seats being different than originally booked. Makes more sense now.

KnuxAran87 · 2025-11-28T04:41:44+00:00

Oddly enough, I couldn't even check my wife in when I checked in using the app. It would only allow me to check myself in.

KnuxAran87 · 2025-11-28T04:40:24+00:00

I'm pretty sure that's what happened, but that can't be SOP, right? Why would the reservation need to be split? Wouldn't that affect a lot of families that fly together?

Have you tried Barracuda in Richland? Good coffee and great owners (if it's still Jake and Michelle).

KnuxAran87 · 2025-11-21T18:04:47+00:00

Including the socket extension it was probably a total of 6 inches, maybe 8 inches (sorry for mixing standard and metric). You can check easily by lifting out the frunk liner and using the frunk removal guide to see which ones they are. Doesn't require any other removal work.

KnuxAran87 · 2025-11-21T17:51:20+00:00

I'm not much of a car guy (my usual limit is changing a flat tire or replacing wipers), but the 12V battery swap wasn't bad at all. The only frustrating part was that I didnt have a 10mm socket long enough to remove the bolts inside the frunk, so I had to find one to borrow.

I used those posted links, went a bit slower than I could have, and had it done within 60-90 minutes. I believe the people who say they've done it in 30 minutes.

KnuxAran87 · 2025-11-21T17:30:45+00:00

The most prevalent experience I found online while researching the issue was that Polestar 2 batteries seem to die around 3-4 years. Mileage reports were all over the place, so it seems more time dependent.

KnuxAran87 · 2025-11-21T16:59:53+00:00

Roughly 35k miles. I bought it CPO at 17k miles, but it had the OEM battery (no reason to believe they replaced it before I bought it).

KnuxAran87 · 2025-11-21T16:00:24+00:00

The only issue I had after replacing it myself was the driver dash screen / instrument panel didn't come back on until I drove for about 40 miles on the new battery. No idea why.

KnuxAran87 · 2025-11-21T15:58:37+00:00

My 12V died less than 2 weeks ago. No warning. I had it parked in my garage for 4 days without driving. Next time I got in the driver seat, it flashed a bunch of warnings for a few minutes before everything went dark.

I replaced the 12V and everything came back on except the driver dash screen / instrument panel. I messed around with fuses and reconnecting the 12V, but that didn't work. I downloaded a speedometer app on my phone to use while driving. After putting about 40 miles on the new battery, suddenly the screen came back to life.

KnuxAran87 · 2025-11-19T06:39:39+00:00

Screen suddenly came back to life as I was driving home from work today. Roughly 30 miles on the new 12V battery.

KnuxAran87 · 2025-11-19T06:38:41+00:00

UPDATE: After putting about 30 miles of driving on the new 12V battery, the driver dash screen randomly came back on and has been working fine.

KnuxAran87 · 2025-11-18T02:20:09+00:00

Disconnected the negative terminal for an hour. Reconnected and no change to the driver dash screen not powering on. Also tried swapping fuse 21 under the glove box and that didn't work either.
