Hello,

The transmission control module (TCM) is located on the left rear of the engine compartment. I have attached the diagram below for your reference. Please note that the replacement TCM will need to be programmed to the vehicle in order to function properly. This will require a scan tool. I have attached the programming procedure below as well.

Check out the images (Below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
