Powertrain Control Module.. Where is it? Sign up here! Search this forum this category all forums for All words Any words Whole Phrase (search options) Auto Repair Home>> Automotive Repair>> Car Troubleshooting fosterstone New User Jan 8, 2012, 12:07 PM Post #1 of 3 (6246 views) Powertrain Control Module.. Where is it? Sign In Hello- I had a 2006 Kia Rio 1.6L with 77K miles. The automatic transmission is stuck in 3rd gear. I took it to several repair shops and they could not diagnose the problem. I took it to a Kia dealer and they said I need a new powertrain control module (PCM). The Kia dealer quoted me $1,100 to replace the PCM which I think is excessive. Where is the PCM located on a 2006 Kia Rio? What difficulties will I run into if I try to replace it myself? Thanks, Foster Stone nickwarner Veteran / Moderator Jan 8, 2012, 3:37 PM Post #2 of 3 (6216 views) Re: Powertrain Control Module.. Where is it? Sign In What is the cost of the PCM? The last one I had to estimate for a Kia was $960 just for the part. Most of that repair cost is probably parts.

Sign In PCM is located between the firewall and the air filter housing. You could get a used one from a salvage yard and then have it flashed by the dealer to your vehicle. You just can't slap any old PCM in there, because the programming is unique to each vehicle.
