Default strange electrical issue

New member with a wierd problem. I did go through 35 pages of posts before writing.

Right front parking light/turn signal comes on at random times when the car is parked(shut off) , also have a random beeping when driving ( can't find any pattern ).
The car was hit lightly in the left front right before this started and repaired by one of the best shop in this area. Hood and left parking/turn assembly , hit a small deer.
94 Honda Accord EX
PW/PL/PSR/4Wdisc/AC/Auto
No alarm system that I know of, bought used last year for girlfriend. It does have an aftermarket remote starter, but it is only connected to the starter.

I have been working on cars, trucks, and Motorcycles for 30 yrs, but this one's got me stumped

Thanks in advance for any help

remote start did you say? I am guessing that it also has the ability to lock and unlock the doors and flash the lights?

I would check the wiring in that corner of the car. it is very common for wiring to get damaged when fenders get crumpled. You can also find the control module under the dash and get it tested to see if it has failed.

Remote starter is not hooked up to doors or trunk. it does however flash the lights and turn them on when you start the car. But why one light light burning and the beeping.

I forgot to add in my response No crumpled fender, slight bow in the hood and cracked the mounts on the left light (and it still worked even before replacement)

most likely a fault in the wiring for that light, like I said you need to check it out....
