Hi all.

A recent thread about WBX engine electrical demands mentions ECU heat.

I'm running a Jetta 2.0 in my Westy. The Jetta ECU is under the rear
bench seat. But. It is covered. (see pics of fancy cover I used) The
stock location on the Jetta was up near wiper arms. Presumably a
better ventilated location.

I know on some Vanagons, the ECU is mounted under the rear seat. Is it
covered? If not.....

Am I increasing risk of ECU failure by covering it and containing the heat?

I guess I could drill some holes in that fancy baking dish. <grin>

Thanks!

Neil.
