Can someone please tell me where the transmission control module is located on the vehicle listed above SLT model with a 4.7 v8? My husband has looked in multiple places, but we cannot find it. Can someone help me please?

Hello,

Yes, the TCM is located in the transmission and the transmission pan needs to be removed in order to access the TCM.

Let me know what kind of issues you might be experiencing.

Here is a guide on typical issues with automatic transmissions:

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
