Most likely. Seeing you say the solenoid clicks when you push the button, now check with a multimeter or test light whether power is coming out of the solenoid, to the starter motor with the start button pushed. If you can get it to turn over by bridging the solenoid, that would indicate to me that there is an internal fault with the solenoid. You are jumping the solenoid from the battery cable to the starter cable at the solenoid terminal posts, right?
