After looking over several crock pot recipes for pinto beans, I recommend setting the temperature to low & cooking for about another 4 hours.

Cook on high for 1 hour and then reduce to low for 4 or more hours. If you are in a hurry, keep on high longer.
Place washed beans in a crock pot and cover with water to within 4 inches from the top. Add salt, pepper, garlic powder, chili powder, and minced onion. Stir to mix. Add bacon and cover. Cook on high for 1 hour and then reduce to low for 4 or more hours. If you are in a hurry, keep on high longer
cook them on low for 8 hours
I would cook them for about 6 more hours on low and then check them for doneness.
