Default 5.0 Wont start!!!

we where able to push start
when we try to start all we hear is a rapid clicking sound (sounds like a relay)
this all happened after i drained the battery on accident

if after the battery is charged and it still wont start then check the solenoid. its on the driver side just behind the battery mounted by the wheel well. ive had to replace a few.

turn the lights on if they are bright then battery most likely is fine, after that I might suspect the fender mounted selonoid
