Re: what's the differance in the ECM and PCM
Ecm is an old term it is now the the pcm, controls engine and trans and other intergrated functions. Most likely mounted somewhere under the hood, cannot be sure of the exact location.

Re: what's the differance in the ECM and PCM
If your thinking of replacing the PCM, you may want to pick one up at a salvage yard for a ton less $ than new. Make sure the replacement came from the same year, make, model w/ the same engine, transmission, etc..

The dealer will flash the pcm, all will be restored.
