FMA Balance Pro Charger Won't Charge - 11.27.2009, 11:36 PM

I have had my Balance pro HD 6s 10a charger for close to a year now. It has charged everything I have thrown at it until about a few days ago. I was going to stop the charge at 80%, but it never got there. After a few hours, I checked the pack and it hadn't changed in voltage since I started the charge. Everything appears as it is charging and working properly, but the packs won't charge.

I figured out how to hook it up to the computer. I took a picture of the charger hooked up to packs in charge mode, with the "fast charge" light on like it always is.





Here is my 6s2p 10ah turnigy lipo. Where it says CURRENT= xxa/xxa, I think the amp number on the left is what the charger is set for and the number on the right is what the charger is outputting to the battery.



And here is my 2s1p 610mah rhino lipo



I hooked up a multimeter to the amperage setting and like the computer says, I'm not getting any amperage.



Here is a picture of the charger working last week with teh big 6s pack. I had a take the fan out of the spud gun and place it on the power supply because it was getting hot charging at 7.5a. It barely gets warm now.



I tried adjusting the voltage on the power supply. I haven't tried checking the amps from the ps to the charger. I've tried just one of the 6s packs. The 2s and those two 6s packs are all I have at the moment.

What do you think is the problem?
