[Elecraft] KX-3 won't turn on with batteries

[QRP5W at roadrunner.com]

Do you measure voltage at the battery connector?

 I got my new factory built KX-3 last week. I just installed new
eneloop
 pro NI-MH batteries and the radio will not turn on using the
batteries.
 Using a power supply I changed the charger settings per the manual,
when
 I try to close out of the menu I get a batt err message.

 Yes the charger was installed at the factory.

 I also tried a new set of Energizer Max still will not turn on.

 All batteries are new and the voltage is as it should be.

 I also checked battery plug in the radio it was tight.

 I did check polarity several times.

 Any ideas???

 TIA
