Unfortunately we don't have a manual on this vehicle so we cannot provide the part number for this module but the way you locate it is on the tag that is on the outside of the part.

Basically you will need to unbolt it and there will be a tag that has a number that most likely starts with MP or MD.

Take a look at the picture below for an example of this.

Please run through this and let us know if we can help in other ways. thanks
