Make? Model? Engine? What is it that you are trying to locate? I know ICM as Instrument Cluster Module, which obviously isnt outside under the hood. On diesels there is an IDM which is an injection driver module.

LH front of engine compartment, on upper radiator support.
Note:
LH is the drivers left hand side of the truck while setting in the driver’s seat.

Good catch Bill, I didn't see a year or model listed, I'm glad you found it. I must have thought I was still in the 87-96 forum...
