Never used that BMS or softwares but looks like it isn't the phone but their app or something in this case

The first screen shot is the battery that is working . The second is the problem one. I turned both yellow slides off and on. Nothing.

Have you tried charging the non working one?

The non working one is hooked up in series with the working one. All the charge goes into the working one. All the discharge comes out of the working one

What, You mean parallel?
I would isolate it and attempt to charge.
FET locked can be reset by touching the slider button (yellow background) next to POWER off and on again. Usually resets it but when it's FET locked one of those slider buttons is usually highlighted in red, either charge or discharge side.

Just checked voltage at the BMS. Probe from multi meter + on + battery post. -Probe on BMS B 53.25v -probe on C 51.88
Do these voltages look right? I am thinking the BMS might be another dud even though odds are against that.

Still wondering if this is the problem. Would the resistance in the different wires cause my problem? One BMS has the two wires and the one not working has the one wire

I do not fully understand your wiring description (got a pic?) but it does not seem like it would be your problem.
Can you post more screenshots of you BMS settings and info?

Thanks for the response Mister Sandals. I got it working. I disconnected the positive cable from the working battery and as soon as the battery with the BMS that was not working was the only battery hooked up it started charging and discharging. I hooked the other battery positive cable back up and everything is fine. Both batteries are playing nice.
Thanks to everyone that replied. I appreciate the help

Glad to see you got it figured out, I should have shared this earlier when I suggested isolating the pack.
Solved JBD Experts Help. No current. I'm stumped.
Edit - solved. Shut off the other 2 breakers and isolated the problem child, started charging right away. Back to batteries and doing some laundry to drain them down for optimal photon harvesting tomorrow. I finished wiring up the 3rd pack and I can't get current to flow through the BMS...

Some how I missed your response. Sorry. It would seem that you nailed it with your advice. Thanks again.Glad to see you got it figured out, I should have shared this earlier when I suggested isolating the pack.
