*Update* TCU box was fried, buddy of mine let me borrow one he keeps at his shop for diagnostics. Went through 2 junkyards today who both claimed to have a TCU and neither did. Tuesday after Christmas one last junkyard in the area who claims to PHYSICALLY have his hands on a TCU box...

directly under the dash on the passenger side. Box with wiring harness coming out of it and a fuse on the harness.

double post.
