It eliminates the battery and starter/generator (and starter/generator ground) as being the problem, and, more than likely, the battery ground. That’s half the components.

It’s got a new solenoid. What’s left is cables/connections and, as you said, the key. So now you know it’s more than likely one of those two things.
