Alarm issues...

I am William Briggs/Briggs Auto LLC
My present struggle is a 2001 911 Coupe that will only start when the interior lights, hood openers,windows and remote key functions.
By no start I mean that there is no crank.
We have replaced the auto's battery as well as the key's battery.
Any previous experience?
Please help,
William

Your question is not too clear, but I would of course suspect the alarm module, which is located under the driver's seat. Sometimes (particularly on convertibles), these get wet and then short out and start causing all sorts of odd problems like this one. You can also try running the routine "Sports Car Handover" from the Porsche PST-2 or PIWIS tool - that tends to fix a lot of these odd issues.
