Also the windows are going up and down with but only while I'm trying to start the car. I can't tell if it's electrical or the starter or a combination thereof. Please help me diagnose this? I have multimeters, tools, etc... Thanks in advance.
Those are some pretty trippy symptoms...

I would get a battery charger on the battery first and foremost.
It could be the battery has a bad cell and can't support the amp draw of the starter..
What does the voltage drop to when you try to start the car..?

Battery 1st
