I thought it was located behind the rear seat

Negative. Per the Factory Service Manual, the TCU is indeed behind the center screen (or ACM as they call it). Technically the Auto Climate Control Control Module is in between the screen and the TCU.

The antenna for the TCU is behind the gauge cluster screen (the IPC)

Behind the rear seat is the audio amplifier for the sound system

Where was the fuse box located you pulled the fuse from?

It's in the cab to the lower left of the steering wheel, behind the plastic panel where the headlight controls are.

You have to pull at the panel to pop it out. It kind of feels like you shouldn't be pulling it and you might break something. The tabs securing the panel are thick but still plastic, so I tried to be gentle. I don't know why Ford couldn't include an access panel with a real latch instead of requiring you to yank on plastic tabs.

This post shows where to start pulling, and this one shows what it looks like once you've pulled the panel away.

It didn't look like Ford included a fuse puller either, so I used some pliers to gently pull the fuse out.

Thank you! I'm going off line this weekend!
