The code is wrong

I still get a message that the code is wrong, could you help me ?

Message : "Make sure your isBatteryEmpty method is checking that barCount is equal to 0"

GoKart.java 
class GoKart {
  public static final int MAX_BARS = 8;
  private String color;
  private int barCount;

  public GoKart(String color) {
    this.color = color;
    barCount=0;

  }

  public String getColor() {
    return color;
  }

  public void charge() {
    barCount = MAX_BARS;
  }

  public boolean isBatteryEmpty();{
  return barCount ==0;
}

}

There seems to be a stray semicolon between the function declaration and the open brace of the code block:

  public boolean isBatteryEmpty();{
//                               ^
//                               remove this
