Bad battery, if it says 0 for remaining capacity, this means all the cells are drained completely
Over time, cells lose thier capacity to hold power, so you will need to change the battery at some point
You can take this pack apart and rebuild it, but this is dangerous if you don't take your time and one screw up could cause a short and a fire, so stay away from this if you aren't patient or have no clue what you are doing
Have a professional company do it if you want to rebuild the battery
