I am trying to sell my 914 and have had several people ask me about this "box" that they have seen in the photos next to the battery. The box they are referring to is the Control Unit. I have it ziptied onto the battery because I am not sure where it goes.
So, I have seen photos of other 914s with the ECU mounted onto the battery tray next to the firewall. However, on my car I have a air conditioning compressor and hose right in the way. Can anyone assist me in where this control unit goes on a 914 with an air conditioning unit? Any ideas? Attached thumbnail(s)

Look in the bottom picture with the 3 holes in the right side vertical section of the battery tray. Since yours is an L-Jet 1.8, there should be captured nuts in the black covering of the ECU. 6mm screws through the holes into the captured nuts. In fact, in the second pic, you can see the 2 studs that would go through the holes.
 PS: on second look, it looks like there is a hose through the body where the ECU would be. Your car have a/c? (Doh, reread to find out you say you have a/c) If so, the ECU was probably moved. The AA bracket is for a D-Jet ECU. |
