03 911 won't start

I tried starting my car today and all I heard was a lot of clicking sounds but engine would not turn over. I also saw a bunch of warning lights come on.
Any ideas on what could be wrong

this year car needs a reader to troubleshoot, unless the battery is low, can you put a charger on it?

This is not the right forum as it for the pre-964 911 cars.

Here is where you want to post this question:

Do Not use jumper cables to start your car because you can damage the electrical system. Instead use a booster pack.
