and Rick, you need to test with a load on the batteries, as well as "at rest".
you may have a bad connection at the battery cables...

my friend the electrical forklifts don"t have ground, the positive
and negative is insolated from the frame, wheol if you have a
multimeter , you can test the voltage in the outers cables from the charger. you can see battery voltage.
