You should test the batteries to see if they're shot.
The best way to do this is with a CBA tester. If your team is low-budget there are simple and inexpensive but manual home-brew ways to do the test.
The quickest way to kill an FRC battery (other than dropping it) is to discharge it too completely. The recommended depth of discharge is no greater than 50%. If stored improperly during the off-season, the battery will die a slow but inexorable death.
... we are really in FIRST to develop a love and appreciation for Math, Science, and Technology. This is our goal. Every team can do this effectively regardless of how well they do in competitions. - tennispro9911 [more]
