Where is the selinoid?

Where is the starter selinoid (sp?)? I am running out of answers to my problems. So far I have replaced the battery, alternator, and starter.

On GM starters the solenoid it physiccally attached to the starter. If you replaced the starter, a new solenoid came with it.

Neo the starter solenoid is on top of the starter. It's what pushes the starter gear up onto the flexplate. Your positive bat cable is connected to it, along with the alt wire, and the solenoid activation wire (you know, when you turn your key over).
