    the tabs underneath the shrink wrap and foam and tape that are used to solder the individual cells together. here is a picture to show you what i mean.single cell lipo,tabs circled.jpg
    your 4s pack is four 1s packs connected in series. Its common for these tabs to disintegrate if the battery is shorted out. If this was the case and you connected it to your smart charger you would get an error stating there is not a battery connected. A circuit needs to be closed for electrons to flow and if a tab comes unsoldered then the circuit is open.

    This is just for future reference since it seems you are out of the woods on this one.

      Just the kind of information I need. Thank you!

      I have yet to tear into a pack to see how they are put together.
      May your batteries never fail you...
