Default 01 ss monte carlo won't start!

hey I have a 01 pace car edition and i stored it for 5 months in the winter and went to start it when i came back and it wouldn't start. i have a full charge on my battery and fuses are good. I checked all the leads on the battery and starter, however I did not remove the starter. I am looking for another solution like a bad solenoid?

but I can't find the solenoid, is it in the starter?

help please

It could be the Body Control Module screwing up, or maybe the Vehicle Anti Theft System? Does it crank at all?

So will it do anything at all? Horn blows, dash lights come on, headlights work, etc? A member (dustybird3) who doesn't get down into this section has been having all kinds of trouble lately and it turned out that her ECM was bad I think... seems like she had the radio replaced thinking that all the stuff that goes through that was the problem and all sorts of mess too.

Try pulling the BCM fuse for a few minutes, then put it back in and try to start.
