Could be the auto shutdown relay or the circuit. or a bad starter. pull the plug off the ign coil and put a light tester in the middle port . If it doesent light up than it did not ground you autoshutdown relay. Bad relay or bad circuit. Turn your key forward and listen to see if the fuel pump pressurizes. If you don't hear the fuel pump that probably means your auto shutdown relay has kicked on. If you had to power to the coil in conjuction without the fuel pump pumping than a short in your ignition circuit or faulty component is triggering your ato shut down relay.

Can a starter solenoid drain a battery?
Yes, a starter solenoid can drain a battery. When a starter solenoid is not working properly it can actually keep rotating the starter after the car's ignition is turned off. Since it requires a battery to actuate the starter, the battery will eventually be drained of power.

It can be a dead battery, or a bad starter, the click sound you hear is from the starter relay mounted on the inner fender near the battery, use a test lite and make sure power is coming out of the relay and going to the starter, always replace both the starter and relay if either is found to be bad

It sounds like the starter relay is the clicking sound. Check to see if power is leaving the relay when the switch is turned to starting mode.
My son's 4-runner will not start and the battery checks out ok. When we turn the key we hear a click but does not turn over. I cleaned the batt cables but still the same. What can he look at?
It may still be the battery. If you just hear a click, it may be the starter is out. Make sure the battery is charged to the fullest. Sometimes the battery will have power but not enough to work the starter.

Bad battery or bad battery connection. The click is the starter trying to engage, but lacking the power to turn the motor.

Why does a 1986 f-150 pickup just click if it would not start and you replaced the starter solenoid and both battery cables and everything is hooked up as it was before it broke?
try changing the battery, your battery might be bad you never know, it might not hold a charge The starter relay needs to have good contact. Even though it may click, the contact is dirty and not good enough to transmit strong electrical power to the starter. Change the starter relay which is connected to the positive cable to the battery. Do not confuse the starter solenoid with the starter relay.
