Tank Monitors

We have a KIB M28 tank monitor that does not light up when I push the battery monitor button. All other button work. I checked the converter and all is well with it. Checked the battery and it is fully charged. I pulled it open and checked the connections which plug in but no help. Any ideas.

Currently traveling and will contact KIB when we return home.

This isn't a helpful post, but what's KIB?

I am thinking that is the brand of the monitor panel and sensors

You guys nailed what I am talking about.

RV Guy-Knowing that the battery is fully charged makes me comfortable that I can tow and that the emergency braking system will work if I become disconnected. Not electrically inclined and have looked at the trouble shooting guide previously but have not done any further testing. Will check further when I get home. Thanks

Success. I opened up the back of the monitor again and wiggled the push buttons that are supposed to make contact to light the LED. After wiggling, it began to light up. Apparently, it was not making contact all the time but I am able to get it to light up most of the time. I will contact FR for a new circuit board.
