Truck went crazy

Reprogrammed my key fob by turning key on and off 8 times, when I went to start my truck the horn started honking and all the lights and gauges started turning on and off and you cant start the truck. I had it towed to a dealership and they let it sit overnight with the battery disconnected and it started up fine for them. I drove it home and the next morning went to start it again and it is doing the same thing. Any ideas?

Is the battery low? Did the dealer have it charging all night while the cables were off? Does it have a factory or Aftermarket Alarm?

Far as I know the battery is fine and no, the dealer didnt charge it at all. Ther is only a factory alarm on the truck.

Maybe the key programming didn't take and the system thinks you're trying to steal the truck.
