Where the hell are the ECUs on the 95-99 Maximas. Maybe I'm going blind but i was looking for it the other day and couldn't find it. I'm looking at upgrading to the Jim Wolf setup.

Right next to the gas pedal behind the trim piece (between the driver and passenger leg area).

Thanks I never would have figured that out. Just helped a friend put an ECU in his SRT4. Much easier

Engine light on, read the two ECU codes. They are: EVAP canister control valve and EVAP control system. What's the fix?

Start by making sure your gas cap is sealing properly. Make sure it's on tight, and if it is and the light doesn't clear, buy a new gas cap. Most likely, that's what's causing the EVAP codes and CEL.
