Assuming it's your 996 turbo in your profile its under the front lid, under the plastic trims.

What are the fault codes?

Hope yours doesn't do what mine did, when it failed, and the brakes were just locked on. Luckily I managed to crawl somehwere before it wouldn't move anymore. New unit required from OPC, at large cost. Hope you get it sorted without going down my route.

Thank you.

Yes 996 tt. It Just tuns off traction control and ABS. Works fine without them! too much grip any way! wears out rear tires quick though!
ABS and traction control lights come on. Two independants have had it conected up to diagnositcs and now after a couple of sensors and damage to loom sorted still shows warning lights. Often when warm will work fine until you reverse.

Im told unit must be faulty and its going back to germany for test and repair to save cost of new one.
I was going to save some time and take it off tomorrow if I can find it!

Best Wishes

Matthew
