The remote can't reach the vehicle, the antenna could be disconnected, the remote could be defective, remote not programmed.... A wide range of reasons coud cause this.

Was working. Can sit in truck and still will not work. Both rf remotes don’t work. Blue light on rf receiver flashes when i lock truck with oem remote.
The blue light means the bypass unit can see the OEM remote commands, nothing else. Why on earth you would take this to the Ford dealer to install is the next question... I guss they are not helping you out?
Did you ever get this resolved?  I'm also having a similar install issue with RF642W, get 6 flashes of the parking lights, and no remote start.  all other functions on the RF642W work fine (locks, etc.) which tells me some connection to the data bus is happening correctly, just not the start.
Because the ford dealership installed it before I bought the truck
