At 10 volts on the meter, assuming it is correct, is a clear indication of a dead cell in the battery. In a 12 volt battery each cell is supposed to be good for 2.2 volts (at peak charge) That means if your battery is pristene, it should be reading 13.2 volts. This is fairly rare. But it should be reading more than 12 for a battery that is not boogered up.
