Your voltages don't add up. Do you have another meter you can use to compare. You can get one at Lowes or Home Depot. Or as a last resort Harbor Freight for about $5.

Did you reconnect the red wire from charging receptacle to pack positive?

I will be back on tomorrow with new meter readings
1. Each battery isolated
2. Entire series with wired in digital and hand held voltmeter
3. Pictures of how they are currently wired with id numbers to show the battery

And anything you may know of that you add to this post thread, ill read in the am.

Thanks for all the comments

"I checked the battery voltages this morning all above 7.1, but
the meter was only reading 31."

For a fully charged battery that sat overnight the best you can expect is about 6.4v. If they were all above 7.1 you should read 42.6.
