Help me with my problem with soil moisture sensor

Hello, me and my teammates are making a robot about soil moisture sensor. It's already done and just doing any test but earlier we faced a problem and since I'm the programmer, I'm the only one who knows the coding aspect.

The robot can be driven via a Bluetooth module and it works, and the sensor works and can fairly read and detect soil moisture.

But, 5 hours earlier, I decided to take it for a small stroll drive so that it works in the day of the presentation. After that, I decided to plug the sensor and it sensed a continuous number of 33 percent and that it's too dry despite being in a wet area.

I've discerned something and maybe I've drained the battery power source and that's why it did not sense anymore. So our last resort was just to charge the battery.

But I'm a new programmer here and I'm anxious if that's our only case and problem here. But I'm trusting on that discernment because we have two more extra sensors that read the same stagnant 33 percent.

Any thoughts guys?
