General Information



Do not interchange Transmission Control Modules with previous-year transmission control modules. If a same year TCM is being used from a different vehicle, the following procedures must be performed:
- Quick Learn Procedure

The Transmission Control Module is located on the right fender inner panel, in the engine compartment. It is held in place by four mounting screws.

NOTE: If the Transmission Control Module has been replaced, the following procedures must be performed:
- Quick Learn Procedure: This procedure will allow the transmission control module to learn the characteristics of the vehicle.
- Electronic Pinion Factor Procedure: This procedure will reprogram the TCM to compensate for different tire sizes and final drive ratios.
