You only have to remove the battery Then remove the plastic covers where the convoluted rubber tubes go into, see picture
Then you can see the ECU. This is it removed.

Get some neutral cure silicon and put it in where the wires go into the plug on the cable, then with it plugged back in wrap self bonding tape around the plug and socket and back up around the cable, got me through what you see in my avatar 2013 D4, E-diff, Vision pack
