TCM Module???

Anybody ever heard of it? I've been having issues with ABS/PSM lights. They come on as soon as I touch the brakes when backing out of the drive. No modules in stock in the states. Looks like I'll be driving a Cayenne loaner for several more days.
Diagnostic comments are welcome.

I screwed up. Misunderstood my service manager that has a very heavy southern accent. After calling him back and asking to speak with a Yankee, his interpretation indicates it was the PSM module that went south. Car will be out for another week.
Sorry for the confusion.

I've taken the PSM out of my '02 996TT . Let me know if you're interested in a used one. It worked fine up until I decided to get rid of the PSM and ABS. The unit should work perfect.

looks like a bad module. however, don't freak out if ABS light comes on during rain or hard launch. if any wheel break loose during braking the light will come on. to re-set it just turn the car off & on again

Arling,
Thanks for the tip. ABS light resets after restart, but illuminates again as soon as I apply the brakes. New module is on order.
