Post computer code location

I am having problems locating the computer code for my 96 Ford Bronco. I have checked the interior driver side of the truck, is this correct location? Or do I have to remove paneling to get to the computer?

I apologize for taking up your time with this simple question, but I simply can't find the code.

Any help would be welcome.

Thanks!

1. Sticker on the wiring harness, low down on the driver's side under the hood.

2. On the drivers side, under dash area, behind the kick panel. Look for a small silver box about 1 1/2 inches thick, 8 inches wide and about 10 inches long. The code will be on it or on the wiring harness going into it.

Thanks, the code is TIN3 and I ordered today.

I appreciate the quick response, I'll let you know how the chip works.

I installed the chip last night and it is working great. I was a little worried about damaging the contacts at first, so the chip didn't work initially. I got it right the second time though, thanks for your help.
