Where is the ECU
This may be a dumb question but i searched the forum to no avail and the manual and thats a no go. Is it called something else? I want to try and pull codes but i can't find the ECU in a 94 max

well first of all it is in the stickies.... general maintainence sticky post #19. i made a video that shows where the ECU is and how to do it. granted what you see on my video is how to pull codes on a VG-engined car.. ecu is still in the same place on a VE but the procedure is different).
All 89-91 cars are VG regardless if they are a GXE or SE but since yours is a 92-94 you have to determine if it's trim level in order to determine its engine. Spoiler + white gauges + black trim around windows/tails means you have a VE. Black gauges + chrome trim around windows / taillights means you have a VG.
ALSO
i'm gonna have to call
on your claims of "searching to no avail" because i found the answer in the 2nd post of the 1st result in the search I tried... (link to thread)

We have the play on words war going. You are a better searcher than i am. I searched "where is the ecu" and then "where ecu" then just "ecu" all in the 3rd gen forum.
And i've been on the forum all morning searching other things. I was done trying to find the answer. thanks man
