export import browser complaint cannot find module

This Meteor app has a template event that maks a Meteor.call, and is causing browser error Cannot find module 'server/plateCheck.js'. The file responsible is:

//app/imports/api/vehicles/methods.js

import { Meteor } from 'meteor/meteor'
import { Vehicles } from './vehicles.js'
import { plateCheck } from "../server/plateCheck.js"; //<<<<<<<<<< 

Meteor.methods({
    'extractPlateData': function (plate) {
        console.log('method called: ', plate)
        plateCheck(plate)
    }
)},


//app/imports/api/vehicles/server/plateCheck.js

import {Vehicles} from '../imports/api/vehicles/vehicles.js'

const plateCheck = async (plateNumber) => {...}
module.exports = plateCheck;

meteor list includes ecmascript 0.15.1

Why is this and isn't the export/import correct as stated? How to get read of the error? Thanks.

Your relative path is wrong. The server folder is in the same directory as methods.js, so you'll need to import

import { plateCheck } from "./server/plateCheck.js";

Or you can make all imports absolute:

//app/imports/api/vehicles/methods.js
import { plateCheck } from "/imports/api/server/plateCheck.js";

...

//app/imports/api/vehicles/server/plateCheck.js
import {Vehicles} from '/imports/api/vehicles/vehicles.js'
