BQ24278 Not reaching charge current

After following the steps described in the evaluation board, I can't get the IC to reach the charge current programmed by the Iset resistor.

When powering the circuit both LEDs turn on, but sometimes it starts charging the battery with a 0.5A current and  sometimes with almost no current at all (20mA).

For the test I'm using a LiPo battery with an open circuit voltage of around 3.8V and Vin=6V with no load connected to the SYS pin, which has a voltage of 4.3V.

The resistor values in ohms are:

Riset=402

Rilim=158

Rtop=34k

Rbott=10k
