Where is my PCM????

Ok, was going to install my TS chip and looked under my dash by the e-brake and its not there.... there is a wire harness that connects where it is but where did they put it??? Any thoughts.


I tired for follow the wires but they go up in the dash and I loose site of them Anything that would give me an idea or a clue of what to look for that might point me in the right direction?


WTF... nothing is easy.......

It is behind the park brake assembly. You have to remove the park brake assembly. The PCM is removed from under the hood through the firewall. You have to take the screws and bolts out of the rear half of the driver side inner fender and drop it down to have enough room to slide the PCM out.

Really... that is no box back there. All there is, is the wire harness you can see in the back ground of the above photo. Is that not where the PMC is located?

Your pic is just showing the harnesses going through the firewall. Did you unbolt the parking brake pedal/release assembly and push it toward the right side of the truck, and look BEHIND the assembly? (You don't have to disconnect the cable and remove it, just unbolt it and move it aside.)

You have to remove the parking brake and look through the hole to see that back of the pcm. If you are installing a chip then you need to remove the pcm from the fire wall under the hood. See pic above

Yup, there goes all acredability I have ever had. Wow. I really am partly handicapped.

Found it, for some reason I thought it was supposed to be where that harness is.

This centurion is a Frankenstein truck so I get real nervous because they had moved other thing while building

Can the PMC be removed from the barking brake side or does it have to come out through engine bay?
