I am trying to write a helper method to return true if the go kart is full.
public class GoKart {
public static final int MAX_BARS = 8;
private String mColor;
private int mBarsCount;
public boolean isBatteryEmpty(){
return mBarsCount ==0;
}
public boolean isFullyCharged(){
if(MAX_BARS);
}
public GoKart(String color) {
mColor = color;
mBarsCount = 0;
}
public String getColor() {
return mColor;
}
public void charge() {
mBarsCount = MAX_BARS;
}
}

Welcome to Treehouse!
In isFullyCharged() you aren't returning anything. Since we want it to return true if the battery is fully charged we can return mBarsCount == MAX_BARS.
Post back if you are still stuck.
Happy coding,
Ken
