First of all check wiring - the easiest would be to check is there a current on the starter when you turn the key. It's very likely that you have wiring problem, and your old starter is fine.

What is a solenoid and where is it at?
Most cars have it on the starter motor or on the fire wall near the battery. It controls the current to the starter and works only when you turn the key to the start position.
What is a stuck solenoid?
A solenoid is a type of magnetic switch responsible for helping your starter motor turn on the engine. When the solenoid sticks, the ignition struggles to start. When this happens, usually your key will "catch" in when you turn it to start the vehicle.
How do you hook up a push button switch to a ignition switch to start a vehicle?
By energizing the post on your starter with one clamp and your battery's positive terminal with the other clamp, when you push the button, the starter will turn using an "old school" remote starter switch. You still need to energize the ignition system to cause vehicle to start and fuel to flow, defeat any interlocks or ignition disablers that may be in place from alarm systems before it will start.
Why do i hear a clicking noise when i start my car?
If you mean the car will not start or even turn over when you turn the key, that 'clicking' is the starter solenoid making contact like it's supposed to. But there is not enough power from battery to start engine, only enough to make contacts in solenoid. Bad battery, or loose or corroded battery cable terminals
