89 F-150 I-6 wont start,Selinode won't click!

Hi,
I was out of town for about a month. Got home and battery is dead. Recharged battery and truck won't start. Selinode won't click at all. Got wifey to turn key hold in clutch and measure 7.2 volts at S terminal wire! Shouldn't it be more? If not does that mean a bad selinode? Any help appreciated!

With the key in the ON position, use a screwdriver and create a bridge between the threaded posts of the starter solenoid. If the engine turns then you found the cause of your problem, if not, check and clean all the connections at the battery and starter.
