I'm thinking I am having a bad ECM, car is having problems shifting. Plus I smell something burning in my car at times. Wondering if I can find out where the ECM is, I can test and swap with a good unit. If anyone is parting their car and will sell an ECM to me, I will keep that in mind to buy. Can anyone confirm a 3sfe ECM is the same as a 5sfe ECM? Thanks!

Solenoid failure would be rectified by replacing the solenoids or replacing the whole transmission. I doubt that the wiring between the trans and the ECU is to blame - if it was faulty wiring outside of the transmission, I believe the symptoms would be that you would be stuck in the wrong gear, not slow changing between gears.
