2001 Ford Escape wont start

What is wrong with my escape? battery is fully charged.? Worked fine, then i replaced the radiator and now ignition wont start, when I turn the key-just clicks, battery new, put on new starter, still wont start and just clicks. I can get lights and power to gauges turn the key on but wont turn over. Any Ford Technicians out there who know whats up?
I already cleaned the cables and tightened them on the battery, fully charged battery and new starter.
2001 Escape 3.0 v6

Also I wanted to add that the security light on the dash will blink untill i turn the key on then it will stay solid for 3 seconds and go out. but it wont crank

Are you sure the battery is good? Auto parts stores usually load test them for free.

Could be the starter solenoid. I believe it's located on the starter.
