I cannot find the module for keyless entry; I can’t find it in the service manuals or anywhere online.

It looks like the module for the keyless system is on the rear shelf, check out the images (below). Let us know if you need anything else.

It looks like the image is upside down. I would open the trunk and look under the rear shelf. If not the rear seat, bottom and top will need to be removed and then the self cover to get to it. let me know how it goes.
