Where is our ECU located?
OK, I could probably root around the car, but I am sick today. Does anyone know where the ECU is located? I'm looking to see the shape/style of the plugs.

Thanks to whoever was so kind to change my "were" to "where" there.

Whoops, sorry, I speak English. Let me try again in American.

Remove the panel in the right side of the trunk.

We haven't spoken English in the colonies in years, or at least a century

there is also a second one behind the radio in the dash. It is very small but must control something.

Is the smart considered to have a bonnet in the UK?
