Car sometimes is slow to crank. Meter on battery shows 12.5- 13.00
Code reader shows the same. Alternator shows 14.2 Could it be the starter
Or relay. Battery cables look good. Toyota Echo

Remove and fully charge the battery--most auto parts stores will do this for free. Clean battery terminals, cable connections, and starter connections. I suspect the battery is marginal.
Get the battery load tested... voltage only tells you part of the story, I bet if you checked at the battery WHILE cranking you would be shocked at how low the voltage gets.
I Echo those replies
A new battery fixed the problem. Thanks everyone
Voltage test while cranking may have helped narrow it down. Good you you got her going.
