Click video above. I have a 2015 Toyota Corolla LE 190,000 miles, last battery was put in 2018/2019. No check engine light is on. Oil is good. Acts like it doesn’t want to start for 2 seconds, then starts fine and runs fine. Any ideas? I checked engine voltage and while running it’s 13.9v with car running nothing else on.

These are just some of my thoughts. I don't know what exactly could be wrong but feel free to try any of these.

1. Is the battery testing good? Is the CCA and voltage still okay?
2. Is the alternator charging the battery properly?
3. Is the starter working properly? Some places I think can test it for free as well you may have to check around.
4. Is there corrosion or anything on the terminals? Make sure the connection is tight and the terminals are clean.

Sorry if I couldn't help as much but hopefully someone more experienced can help out.

Could it be the battery without the battery light coming on? It’s reading 13.9v with car running nothing else on.
