Hi,
I am trying to find the location of TCU module on Next-Gen Wildtrak. I checked behind the glovebox area but there I only saw BCM module. Can someone with access to workshop manual help?

thx.

I found below module or component behind the rear seat on the passenger side. I am not sure if it is TCU or ACM or something else.

Looks kinda big for a TCU. That's a lot of wires for a TCU. But maybe they have combined modules.

I will try to unplug the connectors and monitor the warnings or errors that might come up.

The TCU in my F150 was smaller and had connections to the antenna.

Finally I found the location of TCU module on Next-Gen Ranger Wildtrak. It is located behind the Sync 4 Screen (Center Display Unit) and not easy to access:

I should have doubled down for you when I suggested this. It’s been a few months since I’ve torn down a Ranger though

I was hoping for something easy, like behind the rear seat :(

How on earth do you unplug it when it's located behind the main display??? I'm sure the dealership will not do this for you.
