I would start by seeing if there is LP in there.  Easiest way would be
to *carefully* open the bleed screw a bit (thumb screw possibly to the
left of the fill connection).  Gas or liquid should come out.  Wear a
heavy glove and eye protection -- it may get very cold.

My guess is that your tank is empty.
