ECU wire location

If someone would be so kind to take pictures of their own ECU wire locations on the "middle" connector that would be fantastic.

The info is found in the wiring diagrams of the FSM found on line.

Of the three ECU they are all different in sizing. The smallest one which has 10 wires while the other two are larger but they also differ in size (one has 18 and the other 24 wires total and yours is the larger of the two). Just compare yours to the ones in the diagram and it's a dead give away (not just by size but also the wire colors as you can compare and contrast the plug you have pictured w/the one in the diagram). The diagrams w/the ECU will show the plug illustrations just below the respective diagram.

The manual shows where the connector is physically located in the car, what the connector looks like and all the wire colors/pin out. Also gives you the factory "name" for the connector (B-13, etc).
The schematic shows where all the wires go and how they relate to the rest of the system.

Foxed.ca hosts all the manuals, download everything that looks pertinent to your car (don't assume they'll be hosted forever, so grab everything...).
