Remote start won't start
2013 F150XLT 3.5 Eco.
Recently replaced the batteries in my key fobs, now the remote start feature will not activate. Lock/unlock works fine, but no remote start. Horn will give a short beep, but no start.
Any thoughts/suggestions.????
Thanks in advance.

Why did you replace the batteries? Because the remote start didn't work?
A beep tells you that there is a condition that exists that is preventing remote start. Often, this is the hood switch. On the 2013, it's located 1/2 way up the left side of the engine compartment. Check it. Also it can be something like the car's battery is low.
