    Check the hookup terminals for corrosion or looseness. How hot is hot?

    Low electrolyte, too much current, internal damage, charger incompatible with battery or wrong mode, excess time to charge, high ambient temperature or bad temp sensor would be the most likely candidates.
    If you have integrity, nothing else matters. If you don't have integrity,
    nothing else matters.​

    Feel along the side of the battery. If one cell is hotter than the rest it is shorted and hogging all the charge and the battery is dead.

    also, expect a possibly hot battery if it is overly discharged and using a higher amp charger.
