Hi , Thank you for your response. I have charged the batteries to 100% via an external charger and still getting 0.00V for Pack and cell readings in Escribe. Checked to earth screw, Soft Reset, Hard Reset and Restore to Default have been tried without success. three new LG HG2 on the way, but I don't think they're gonna solve the issue. I haven't checked the continuity on the Wismec; didn't think of that to be honest. Although I have a MultiMeter; it doesn't have the continuity feature . I have also noticed that when it is connected to USB it doesn't try to charge either (no battery indicator). I feel that Wismec won't respond favourably; and with that in mind, what would I have to remove to check these battery conections ? Yesterday a Hard Reset via Escribe fixed the problem momentarily only to fail again moments later. I did notice that uncharacteristically the mod was getting warm in the usb/adjustment buttons area.
