Re: Watchdog not fed

I don't know if this is useful at this point, but after struggling with watchdog issues throughout the build season, we corrected it by putting a 5 ms wait statement in our main loop. That cured the problem instantly, and it didn't come back.

(I'm not at all a programmer, but I know that's what they did, so I thought I'd share it here. Good luck teams!)
