Can somebody please provide step by step instructions for how to remove the ECU from the bike? This is my first MX in 30 years and also my first FI bike. I want to send it off to get remapped and I need to get it out without breaking it or anything else with minimal fuss. I might also add that I just had my left hand operated on, so I am working only with one hand....which makes it very critical that I have solid step by step help.
I did search but no joy.
Thanks

You need to be able to squeeze the side, then pull apart at the same time.
Get help
Thanks.
They moved it to the lower left frame spar for 2014, same as the 13, sorta near the shock and airbox boot. You need to undo the plastic hose clip bracket on the hose that comes out of the rear of the airboot. It's clipped into a metal bracket near the shock spring and ECU, this will give you more room for your hands and to get the ECU out when disconnected. Then you need to work the ECU black rubber "holder" off the 2 mounting prongs it's attached to. Then the hard part: hence...you need two hands. You need to get your left hand in there to squeeze the connector (inside the clear plastic protector, squezze up high, near where the wires enter into the clear connector) to raise the rocking locking latch so you can gently wiggle the ECU from the connector. Once you do it once it'll take one-third the time if you ever have to do it again.
I'm sure others will chime in, good luck!
