Either Electrical Short or I've seen this be caused by an injection pump beiginning to fail.

check you battery cables make sure there tight, also i found out the hard way do you tilt your steering wheel alot if so might my power cable to my key switch broke there that was a day finder right there. just pull the bottom plastic part off and check you red wire there make sure it is not loose there is also a recall for the power disterbution (cant spell) box the fuse box under the hood make sure there tight

Slow cranking is usually due to bad batteries. Be sure to have em load tested.
