you have a stick shift - right? Check the clutch start interface. This has been a common problem in the past on both 997.1 and 2's. If the clutch isn't fully depressed or the interface is not properly aligned, the car will not start. Don't know about 991's but it's an easy thing to check. I had that on my 2007 (clutch had to be depressed to the floor), but it didn't click when trying to start it, rather it just did nothing. ChuckJ

Thanks very much, ChuckJ! I wouldn't have even known about its existence without your comment. I really like having this reading easily available. This car is so heavily dependent on electronics (e.g. the stop/start function) that it seems as important as the oil readings.
