    I am looking for help finding the 2A connector, which is an elongated 56 pin connector. From the wiring diagrams, it looks like it might be connected to the Main Body ECU. If it is, it is hard to find. Any ideas?

    I guess I have answered my own question. The 2A Connector is located on the lower back part of the Instrument Panel Junction Block, which is attached to the Main Body ECU. So my question has now evolved.

    I would like to tap a wire on the 2A Connector, but I have not yet found the best way to access it. Even if I'm able to somehow manage to disconnect the connector by reaching behind the junction block, there does not seem to be enough slack to bring it into view. Maybe contorting myself so that I can lie on my back under the dash would work, but I'm looking for an easier solution.

    Does anyone have a better idea?
