Head Light Issues

Anyone know the location of the Front Control Module on a 2012-2014 300 SRT8. Getting two short to ground codes now which both indicate a problem with either the wire harness or FCM / BCM. Need to locate the control module so I can start ohming things out to trace the issue. Right low beam will not come on and now the left daytime running light that surrounds the headlight is out.
Any help is appreciated.

gapi,
Thanks for the reply, yeah I realize its the BCM but when I called the dumba$$ dealership they swore up and down that the car doesn't have a BCM, puts me on hold and comes back and says "well technically it does but we call it an FCM". I didn't know what would translate best on here so I just asked for both since I don't have access to a service manual.
To answer your question, yes the problem exists no matter what position the switch is in. The high beam still works on the passenger side but no low beam. It would occasionally come on when I cycled the switch but for the last 2 weeks I get no low beam at all. To add to the frustration now the driver side Daytime Running Light (the light ring around the headlight) works intermittently. Electrical issues are no fun and get expensive quick. I first when the route of changing ballast and bulb on the passenger side and it worked for a couple months. I figured I would next try to check connections at the BCM and at least OHM the wire harness out once I locate the terminating end.

Thanks again for the help.
