Hello everyone, I'm having a little trouble getting my 1998 XLT 4.6, 2 wheel drive to start. It's been parked for about 5 months, took the battery off to charge it, put it back in and it doesn't want to crank. So I got a new battery and the same thing, no start. When you lock the truck with the remote, parking lights only flash once, not twice like usual. It's acting like there's a door open, and it won't reset so I can start the truck. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks for your time reading my post.

try cleaning the battery terminals. it sounds like the battery is not getting good connection.

Thanks for the reply, the battery terminals are brand new as well.
