Looking for the location of BCM. Also, information on replacing. Will I have to take it to a dealership to get we flashed?

The BCM in this car is called a TIPM (totally integrated power module) and ii-self learns so no programming is necessary. Here is the location of the unit and how to replace it. Check out the images (below). Let us know if you need anything else.
