For the Chevy Silverado, a helpful video on resetting the transmission control module can be found at: https://www.Youtube.com/watch?v=yu6WDIWBf3g It's crucial to replace the transmission fluid every 30,000 to 60,000 miles to avoid costly issues. Listen out for unusual sounds from the transmission, indicating the need for a fluid change. If the torque converter is worn out, it can lead to headaches. The transmission is a vital component of the vehicle and will eventually encounter problems like hard shifts, shudders, stuck gears, and jerking. Any leaks in the transmission fluid should be promptly repaired to prevent delayed shifts and potential slipping.

This setup seems unusual and I'm unsure if this is the TCM. I'm looking for guidance on locating the TCM so I can pull it out and have it checked properly.
