No start with key

I have a Viper remote start in my truck, it was installed over a year ago, and has worked great.

Today I go outside to move truck using key, truck doesn't crank or do anything, I push button for remote start and truck starts right up.

Any ideas what might be bad, ignition switch?? I tried both keys and same problem.

This is on my 99 Ranger

There is probably a conflict between the PATS bypass module and the standard pickup for your ignition keys.

Locate and disconnect the PATS bypass module and try the key(s) again.
