If you take a reading across battery posts, everything off, and it shows 12.5 volts then you take same reading with key in the crank position and it still shows 12.5 volts, that isn't right. I didn't see EX model, looked at ES. Automatic doesn't show starter relay, manual tranny does. Yes, do a voltage drop test, if you are losing three volts from one end of same wire to the other end, replace wire.
