It's behind the engine bulkhead at the base of the windscreen. You need to remove the windscreen wipers and panel(s) behind them as if you were going to change the wiper motor.

Be careful disconnecting the ECU though, I think if you completely unplug it, it will lose some of the essential basic settings (more than what gets lost when the battery is disconnected).

Hope this helps...
