2014 ex hard start after sitting
After sitting for 3 + hours my car is hard to start. I have to attempt to start it about 10 times before it will finally start but will start just fine while it is still warm. It is a push to start. No noises at all when failed start. Alternator was just replaced. No codes from code reader.

You're going to need to explain more. Does it crank forever? Does it crank at all? Tries to start but sputters and chokes?

I had aftermarket fog lights installed that were causing a parasitic draw and weakened the alternator so I went ahead and replaced it

when the engine does turn over it cranks immediately. I know its an electrical problem OR starter going bad.
