Its in the passengers wheel well. You have to disconnect the battery, jack up the pass side, remove the tire and there will be an access panel on the rear of the wheel well that you will need to take off. It is in that void behind the wheel well. It will be the silver box with two plugs. There is a small black box mounted on top of it. That is the TAC module and it will have to come off first. Dont try to cheat or you will break things!!!

Once you have the access panel off it will be self explanitory!! It sounds more difficult than it really is! Give it a try. If you have any problems, all you need to do is ask for help. I doubt if anybody will have anything on this because it is so simple.
Got it out. Those bolts in the back side are a pain to get too. The biggest problem I had was realizing that the PCM pulls out. It was really snug and I was looking all over for bolts. Just had to use some muscle. Thanks
Where is the PCM located (passenger floorboard?). How should i go about removing it?
After removing the passenger side front tire and the access panel inside the wheel well the TAC & PCM are exposed. The only difficult part of the whole deal are the back mounting screws. You have to be a contortionist to get to these. Remove the TAC module (2 screws) and then remove the two connectors from the TAC. Once this is out of the way, remove the two connectors from the PCM. These are self extracting connectors that will back out when you turn the mounting screw. Next, loosen the rear mounting screw in the PCM bracket, but don't remove it. Remove the two front mounting screws from the bracket. The PCM will now slide out towards curbside. Reverse this procedure to install but don't tighten the rear PCM mounting screw and do not install the rear mounting screw for the TAC. This will make the next removal much easier. I just used a nylon tie wrap to secure the back of these modules. It is not necessary to disconnect the battery or any fuses to perform this change.
