Default What part is this? ECM?

Hey guys im looking for this part SOS Diagnostics requires the ECM, and SKREEM module for programming keys.
I cant find an engine computer in the service manual.
Can you guys help me find some instructions on where and how to remove it?

this is the pic of the ECM they sent me

Update - My copy of the service manual has the ECM listed as the POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE
Going to pick up the keys and install tonight or tomorrow. this is the stock photo of the key they sent me


they also put these nifty "void if tampered with" warranty stickers on SKREEM and PCM. Looks like reputable work. And the key is perfecto.

ECM is easy:
Raise hood, go to driver's side, remove cover from large box next to battery.
In there, you will find the RCM, BCM and ECM.

The SKREEM is not easy:
The SKREEM is behind the speedometer.

Ok is there any kind of like diagram or labeling?
i gotta take these parts 30 mins away id rather not bring the wrong parts.

The SKREEM is the immobilizer unit though?
im probably going to service the blend doors while waiting for keys. Gotta love interiors

Sound like a total noob here. I dont know anything about vehicle electronics though so...

The box on the right is the ECM then? Engine computer? This is called powertrain control module in manual, no?

You must have long arms to reach the box from the driver side.

Friendly translation: "Just got the call. Keys are ready. Haha, that's fast!"...
Don't mean to offend. Typos and punctuation are critical to those of us that need (want) a 2nd key..
Thanks for posting! Please continue..

I can see they would unlock the door but how can these start the car unless the RFID is molded into the key head or it's fastened near the halo? If so, these keys will just be valets, no?
Still confused..

they start the engine. I think he reprogrammed the ECM and SKREEM to his chip
car is throwing weird codes at me now though. Not sure if its relay related or me engine is clogged somewhere. Getting a P0412 and misfire #6 and an 02 sensor

Pull the RCM apart and clean the Air Injection motor relay.

It's my belief that the O2 sensor heaters run through this relay as well as the AI motor.

I was throwing a p0412 and codes for all 4 o2 sensor heater circuits. After I cleaned the relay, no codes in 1500 miles.

I checked my relay it seemed clean... My worry is that taking out the wires for RCM and ECM caused a wire fault. I wasnt too rough on them but they were ziptied all funny so it was a struggle.

I'll wait until you get the other issues sorted out. These key > skreem > ecm relationships are complicated. I'm baffled how this is working for you. Just glad that it is. Thanks for the reply..
