You can search and find the ECU but unless you have a bad ECU, that shouldn't be your problem.

Edit: The ECU factory, with that engine is a PT2.

well I will give you information but I don't know if you will understand it. You have to find the connecter. I believe its behind the center console or by the pasenger right side kick panel. Its a connector which consists of 2 wires which you have to connect together using a jumper.

by doing this your check engine light will flash out a series of codes. this can tell you why the light is on.

yea check your codes...you very seldomly come across a bad ecu...well atleast in my eperience. but there is a blud clip under the driver side center console and just stick a paper clip in it and turn your car key to the second position and it will blink the cel codes you are throwing. if that wasnt clear then just search it.
