My suspicion is that you have one or more bad balance wire connections and that the sum of the cell values does not match the voltage on the charging wires.

That normally happens to me when I choose a preset that is the wrong cell count for what I am charging. Maybe a 6S heli and I am on a 5S profile or whatever.

It can also happen if one wire on the connector somewhere isnt making good contact. Or if you use a normal profile as the charger ships with that I didnt modify...

Yours seems to have high cell 3 and low cell 2 so maybe a loose connection on the battery main wires between those cells or something.
