  Brian,

A Not Installed indication for any K2 option indicates a problem with 
either that option's microprocessor or a continuity on the AUXBUS 
signal.  Check the soldering, especially at the KNB2 firmware chip pin 
1, as well as the other pins of the firmware chip.

The other possibilities are the 4 MHz resonator or the firmware chip itself.
