    Not sure on yours but mines under the centre console between the handbrake and gear lever. To help its also called the Airbag Control Module. I wouldnt go taking it out though on a 1 year old car. Take it to the dealership it should be covered under warranty

    Thanks for the offer but i has tried my mates garage and won't clear fault code which is B1231 longitudual acceleration threshold exceeded. The only way is a new ecu or send it away.

    As far as i know you can't clear that code (it's also stored in the gem if i remember correctly) , anyway we can normally tell if it's been in a bump , unless you managed to get it repaired by one of the very few repairers that are excellent.
