    Hello All,

    Thank you for the site and help. I have used it in the past to troubleshoot.

    I'm currently seeking to replace a skid ECU on a 2005 Toyota Prius . I have the error codes in the photo.
    I have partially disassembled the dashboard .

    While disassembling, I noticed the skid control ECU can be seen from under the drivers side. I can unscrew the 2 screws at the bottom and remove the wires clipped in however is there a easy way to remove the top screw?

    if not, what should i do next? Continue to remove the dash or remove the steering wheel and column>

    Thank you,

    Have you tried clearing the DTC or analyzing them with techstream before replacing the part?
