It is in the pass side wheel well, but one module. It controls both the engine and transmission.

Thx ron, that's what I kept asking him and he insisted there were 2. I thought there was just the one also so thank you for confirming I'm not crazy!

Well, the TAC module is right there too, are you sure that isn't what they were talking about?
