If this is a bug and/or if this violates some US law, well now that OTA updates are working so this may get "fixed" for US drivers...

Hmm, maybe we should delete this thread and keep it "our little secret"...
If I was a moderator here I would... :)

Also remember that for range mode the default is to turn off passenger screen. I believe there is a setting to change that default.

Edit. I was wrong about the second sentence but keeping it here so the subsequent comments make sense.

Actually, there are cars that have the passenger screen on all the time already, even before the update.
So that makes me think maybe this was already possible before the update but was never discovered.
It may not necessarily been part of this update.
Anyway, it works and that's good.

Hmm, very unlikely.
I've been through the whole menu and can't remember something like that but do share if you got some usable info!

Agreed. The system wants to go into standby when no pax is present. May need to turn off auto updates!

My guess is it is a bug in the programming that is allowing this to occur. May be part of why it takes a few tries sometimes to get it to work. But, either way, the display actually has some value now!
Glad you got it working. We keep having to figure things out. Thanks @Dee.

First reported 12v battery dead with the update
https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/locked-out.3916/post-62282

It is unclear what the root cause was but it is shows that the update does not prevent drainage in all situations and it does not top off the small battery from the big one when drainage happens.
Wow. That is hugely disappointing. My car is in for the software update now. I was told it could take up to a week. Far cry from the 1-2 hour Tesla updates that were done in the garage while connected to home Wi-Fi.

My MY21 did not take the update very well - range was reduced by 40%, then started getting multiple yellow and red warnings. When leaving home saw a red message stating it could not be driven. Locked car and came back a couple of hours later and all was good but still with reduced range - took it straight to the dealer and it has been there for over a week now with lots of communication between dealer and Porsche Germany techs - they are still not sure what is going on...

BTW:
it should be remembered that the passenger screen is only ONE big screen. So does displaying "black" on the passenger half really save energy? :)
