I don’t have any educated suggestions, but I will throw out a couple of things I might try if I was stranded somewhere with a similar problem.

Have you taken the positive post clamp off and cleaned the connections that are associated with the clamp bolt? I’m thinking that any corrosion could inhibit the delivery of the needed amperage to trigger the solenoid.

Have you tried moving the gear selector into neutral and trying to start the car with it in that position? Or perhaps moving the selector a bit on each side of neutral while holding the key in the start position?

Sorry, that’s all I got.
