Same reason as my answer to your 11/27 post, robot is not detecting it is in the base.  It is either the nuts and plates have to be shined up to eliminate oxidation, or there is an alignment issue that is causing the nuts to not hit the plates when the robot enters the base.

Cheers,

Hi Whitey, sorry for the trouble.  Take a look at the date and time.  It could be that the battery failed on the motherboard and that will make the robot think it is a different time than it actually is.

Also, what happens when you press the "Charge" button to make it come out?

In another post, Whitey reported the issue was caused by a loose wire on the charging plate.  Good to know!
