The solenoid on the starter is clicking?

Maybe you need a new starter. If there is power to the big terminal of the starter and there is power to the little terminal of the starter with the key in the crank position and the starter isn't turning the engine over its probably the starter. One single click everytime you turn the key to the crank position thats usually the starter. A bunch of clicks in rapid succession when you turn the key to the crank position usually indicates a weak/bad battery.
