It's hard to tell without seeing the actual code, but I'm guessing that
somewhere in there you've got a click() or a get() that you're not
checking for success(), and the state of the Mech is no longer
meaningful for doing other things.

Rule #1 in Mech is always check your return codes.

Rule #1a in Mech is if you're not going to check your return codes, turn
on autocheck in the constructor to check your return codes for you.
