Default Weird charging goings on...

I have a GT power x-drive 6 quad lipo charger, and when I'm charging one particular battery, im finding that if I put the battery on charge, it shows the battery at 3.95v per cell, but when I put it on storage mode, it shows 3.95 on one cell, and 3.65 on the other, and it kicks it out...
What's going on???
I've verified the 3.95v per cell using another charger and multimeter...
Thanks

Yeh, tried a few things and it looks like a dodgy channel on the charger... Super.

does it do it in another port?
try another lead
open charger up and check for dry solder joint on port thats giving a false reading

I've pulled it apart and there's no dry joints, and I've tried different combinations of lads and batteries etc. There is however a couple of small film resistors that look cooked (or at least they look slightly distorted compared to the other three channels)
That's a shame.
