Double check your battery. It sounds like it does not have enough punch to start your car. This can happen with older batteries. They measure 12-13V but do not have the amps to turn the starter.

The battery was bought may of 2018 took it back and they checked it said it had plenty positive post was a little corroded along with bolt replaced the bolt and tighten them both back up good the starter don't even click when hitting the key
