    Where is 850r ecu

    I am really busy and lazy, where's ecu on an 850r? I'll try it on the 854 t5 see if its chipped as have no idea. Think it might be it did go past end of white.

    I know t5 850 stares at you next to air box, but haven't really paid much attention to 850r, plus I'm assuming it fits.

    lmao no it doesn't. The airbox is on the passenger side, the ECU is in a seperate box on the drivers side. The 850R is exactly the same lay-out. It might fit but not convinced it'll work

    I must be day dreaming, I'll look in the Haynes, I thought they were all interchangeable on the early models.

    ECU is on the right side of the vehicle, near the power steering pump.
    The 850R might not work as it has an immo (along with later 850-T5s)

    The one mentioned near the air-box is ABS module found on the first generation OBD-1 850 Turbo models
