discharge the pack down to 3.2V per cell and then balance charge to see if they will come up equally.

Some times if the wires in the balance lead are a little crusty it will look like there is a differance in the voltage in the 2 cells but it is just poor contact in the balance conector giving it a poor reading
Should check the voltage on the main pack red and black wires and see if it adds up to the same as your balace lead readings

well i will say that at one point over the summer that pack came back with a temp of 160 which was fishy. it never seemed to charge very well after that happened..... oh well the thing is done as far as im concerned
