Default How do I Pull Codes

i have a starting problem. I need to pull recent codes to pre diagnose. Basically I turn key and nothing happens, brake peddle depresses. No sounds, sometimes the gauges work. Help?

it always starts within 5 minutes or less.

Make sure battery is in good condition and at 100% charge and all connections are clean and tight. If that doesn't fix problem then pull codes. First thing to eliminate is battery.
Does car sit idle for long periods? If so, a battery tender is recommended.
