If it no longer will lock or unlock the car or operate the the frunk or trunk, the electronics are probably fried

I just had the same problem on my 04 Targa and ordered a new fob
GenuinePorscheParts.com has the best price I found
$127 + shipping

Be careful buying one on ebay or other places. If it does not have the barcode tag with the key code, it is about as useful as 2 tits on a borehog

You will then need to get it programed at a Porsche Dealer or an Indy that has a PWIS . That generally costs $75-$150
