Remote start with no lights

I have an '05 with the 6.0 and a factory remote start. It used to flash the turn signals as it beeped twice. It turned the parking lights on when it started. Now it just beeps and starts with no lights at all. What happened???

check your alarm relay, there should be an relay to control it, or read in the starter manual if there is an option to turn this on and off.
are your lights flashing and chirps when you use you remote to lock and unlock?

Does not have an alarm system. After using the remote start, when I unlock the door, the light does not come on until I open the door. The lights flash and chirp when I hit the lock button.

there is possibly lock and unlock relay, but try this , Hold unlock button while unlocking for 5- 10 sec. see if it does anything,
anyways, it only happens after you use remote start? try to normally lock and unlock the door, if it chirps , your keyless entry works normally. and if it only does it after using your remote start , than you have loose connection somwhere under steering wheel or bad relay thats used for unlocking....
