Ok, I had to create a new user to do this. Do they need any other permissions to call?

So they have DescribeRegions ability? Are you still receiving an error regarding DescribeRegions?
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/late ... s_EC2.html has an example policy where Describe actions are allowed.

Yes, and yes.
I tried removing the source IP, and added all actions from List/Read, and it is still failing.

Are you on the current 1.1.2 version if you run "/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_ec2.py -V" ? It can be updated via the wizard with an update under Admin > System Extensions > Manage Components.

Can you try changing the password to something else? Sometimes special character can cause havoc and using something like "This Is @ Simpl3 P@ssw0rd" is a good test to rule that out.
