TPMS control module location

Hello,
I've changed all four TPMS sensors on my 2012 Mini hatchback base but the check light is still on. The mechanics says the diagnostic tool returns a control module problem.

Mini Cooper TPMS Control Unit OEM Gen2 R55-R61 | eBay

This is the receiver that monitors the sensors in each wheel.

Does anyone know where that module is located for that year/model? The mechanic couldn't find it.
Thank you.

Make sure you check your electrical connections for water intrusion/corrosion. The location is bad for that control module. I've got a 2012 Justa and had a bulb out indication for the reversing lights. When I went to check the bulb, the entire light assembly (near the TPMS control module) was flooded with water.

Thank you guys! My mechanic just looked everywhere before taking the bumper off. Rats had chewed the wire connections.
