Default Need some help

Picked up a clean 07' ES350 for my 17 year old son for his first car. Runs great after a little work. Last thing on our list are power mirrors not working along with memory buttons not operative. I believe the issue is the Outer Mirror Control (89430-33090). Picked one up but I can't seem to find where it's located in the car
I've searched and searched but nothing. Only vague reference was to it being under the dash on the passengers side. I looked but could not find it.
Any help, or ECU diagrams would be very much appreciated

Thanks!

Looks like just behind the dash on the passenger side (#11 in diagram)

Remove the covers and you will see it, it says on it MIRROR CONTROL, ECU.

Did you check the fuse?

Thank you both! I removed the cover under the glove compartment but did not see the module. I have the replacement so I know what it looks like. I did see 4 other ECUs but not the mirror controller. Spaceballs, do you think I will need to remove the dash? I'm not planning to do that.

Hmm... If you can find a local Lexus/Toyota mechanic, maybe give them a buzz, alternatively, you can talk to the parts departmnet of your dealership (Make sure you talk to one of their techs and not the salesperson), they can often give you some advice on how to locate/remove it, I found them to be very useful in the past when I had a specific question.

Appreciate the help.
Pulled the bottom cover under glove compartment, then four bolts holding lower air bag. 5 screws holding in glove compartment. That allowed me to pull the glove box out. Once it was out I was able to reach up and unbolt the power mirror control ecu. Replaced with a used unit I picked up for $15. Put everything back together. Total time was 20 minutes. Now both mirrors work, as does the memory controls!
