X-T2 failing?

Went out shooting today and my X-T2 worked as expected. The battery was running out so I changed it. Put a spare in and the camera did not power up. Weird. I have four spare batteries and tried all of them but the camera would not start. Tried all four fully charged batteries in my X100F and all work fine.

Does anyone have any thoughts as to to what I can do to get it working or is this a common failure?

BTW when I bought it from B&H I also got the 4 year Squaretrade warranty which does not expire for over a year. So at a minimum I can at least get it fixed.

Update. I let it set for a while with no battery in it and then put one in. The first one did not power it. Put another in and it powered up. Tried the last two and they all worked. Then I put the one in that did not power it up and now it works ok. This is too strange. Oh and each battery has a sequential number on it and I tried them from 1 - 4.
