I suspect the code is U0101, meaning communication with the transmission control module has been lost. “UA101” is not a standard code. For U0101, check:

1. Battery condition and charging voltage
2. Transmission-control and ignition fuses
3. TCM power supplies and grounds
4. Wiring/connectors at the transmission
5. CAN communication wiring

Here is the location of the fuses for the TCM which is on the left side of the engine compartment so you can check it out after the battery is checked/replaced. Let me know please.

Yes check the fuzes first I belueve in the fuze block near the batery On fuze is located at f17 (30 amp) and f18 (20amp) also check the maine plug at the transmission aldo check the big round plug with a bunch of wires under the air intake box and to answer your original question the tcm is located inside the transmissiion valve body.good luck
