Onan EC30W Autostart Question

I purchased the EC30W autostart and installed it with no problems. The problem I am having is with the control module itself. It constantly shows establishing communication, then shuts down as if a bad battery. I removed the rechargeable battery pack and put in regular batteries and it works fine. Acts like a bad battery pack that isn't taking a charge while plugged in. Has anyone else experienced this? Hate to have to pull everything back out and exchange it if I am missing something.

    We have had the EC-30W for years. We had to move it up to the center of the coach from the bedroom because it would keep losing its connection when kept at the rear of the coach. We have had to replace the battery pack in the remote once after a few years. When you say it shuts down, does the screen just go dark? That is normal but does it light back up again if you press any button?
