Since the engine doesn't even turn over it is not the CPS. Agree battery cables and corrosion would be a strech, but it would not cause a slow crank. If there were a short it would be all or nothing.
NPS as MontereyAero suggests above would be a good culprit, but not something that I would throw parts at without an indy taking a look first. The part is expensive I believe. To diagnose if it is a starter issue, you can give the starter a quick but solid blow with a wrench when it won't turn. If it is sticking, then this will loosen it up, but I think that your problem is electrical. Do you have a good indy around?
I got my siren batteries from Mouser FWIW. I don't think that the dealer will sell you the batteries, just the unit.
Best regards,
Don
