Last Friday the remote start on my 2015 XLT 302A w/86,500+ miles quit working. I got busy over the weekend and didn't think about it. Tried to start the truck this morning and was reminded that the remote start doesn't work. The battery was replaced a couple of months ago and all was working fine. There are no odd lights or other indicators. Not sure if there are any codes as I don't have a code reader. Any thoughts as to why this would just mysteriously stop working? I tried both fobs and the results were the same.
Couple things I've seen - make sure the remote start system is still enabled in the cluster menu. Next, try disconnecting your trucks battery for 5-10 min and reconnect. That worked for another forum member though I can't seem to find the post now...
I think you'll need to re-enable 1 touch auto windows after disconnecting the battery (put window down, then all the way up and hold until click, same with passenger side).

First off I would try a fresh battery. They’re like anything else, can get a bad one once in a while

I need to look at that. As I remember, I was looking thru the menus but I don't remember changing anything.
Speaking of fob, there is a small led on the fob that should give you some feedback. If it's blinking red (indicating no start) I would think fob battery is still good and issue is on truck side or you're out of range. Keep us posted.
