I reached out to my contact at Lippert and he said that both the Keypad 500456 and the 500457 module are obsolete but the Replacement Components Kit # LC359259 will work perfectly to replace both components. This will get your system back up and running while also upgrading it to the current design.

From what I could find, it looks like the red wire needs to connect to 12V power. The diagram I found showed it spliced to an orange 12V wire and a fuse but I'm not sure if that's the same color you'll find on your system - it's always best to check the wires for function before making any connections.

It sounds a bit like there could be an issue with the battery power source. I would start by making absolute sure the battery you're hooked up to is still in good condition and fully charged. You should be getting at least 13V of power from the battery. Also make sure the connections are still secure and there isn't any corrosion interfering with the connection.
