DSLR Power Issues??

Hey guys. Recently got my hands on a second hand 5D Mk 2. Been having issues with the battery I think. When in the charger, it never shows full charge, but when I check the voltage, it appears to be full. The camera also shows the battery being completely empty?

After a bit of fiddling, I can get the camera to come on and show FULL 100% battery, but only if I open the battery door, and close it again. I can scroll through all the menus, but when I go to take a photo, it shuts off, and shows low battery. Open and close the door again, and the battery is full, but same thing, try to take a photo, and the battery is low again!!??

Im, thinking (hoping) the battery is stuffed….Any thoughts?
Erik
