Fenix 6 Pro Won't Turn On Unless Plugged In

I used my watch two days ago to track a hike and it worked fine. I went to use it today for a bike ride and it wouldn't turn on. When I plugged it in to the wall it turned on but it said it had 100% battery which I know not to be true. And the second I unplug it it turns off and it won't power on again. Does anyone have any information on this? Thanks in advance.

Sounds like a faulty battery. I would contact Garmin.

Indeed probably a faulty battery. Just one thing that isn't likely, but you never know; does it show a correct time and date when it is plugged in and has started up?

If it is the wrong time and a date way in the past, set the date via manually and charge it for a couple of hours. Some old Fenix models could not charge if they had lost the date & time.

I haven't had it for a year yet, but I guess it could be faulty. I did contact Garmin, just waiting for their reply.
