Could be the starter relay or other contacts in the starter circuit needing cleaning

If needed cleaned surely it wouldn't of started with the jump leads

The extra oomph from the other battery may be blasting the current past the crap

If it is one of the standard relays swap it with another and try it worked on my mates Mille

I can't see how it would work from a jump start if the relay was knackered
