Starting problems Westwood 1000?

Westwood 1000 Series - trying to start the mower. Turning the ignition key I get just a clicking sound from solenoid (I think). I have charged the battery which is only 2 years old. Could it be the starter motor or one of the safety swiches?

Most likely a failed solenoid. Not a difficult job.
