I looked up your starter motor, online partsbook, your vehicle, 3.0L engine. The solenoid sits on top of starter motor, if that is what you have, don't worry about looking for it on the firewall. There is a starter relay, should be in fuse box. I also looked up your security system, it said, starter motor disable, something to think about if your having a problem. What I posted is my opinion. Make sure battery has a full charge and connections all good.
