Finding the ECM:
1. Check the owner's manual: The owner's manual for your 1991 4Runner should have a diagram showing the ECM location.
2. Look for labels: Look for a rectangular black box with a label that says "ECM" or "Engine Control Unit."
3. Consult a repair manual: A repair manual specific to your 4Runner model and year will have detailed diagrams and information on ECM location.
4. Use a diagnostic tool: Some diagnostic tools can scan for the ECM and display its location on a screen.
Important Note:
* Beware of live wires: Always disconnect the battery before working on the ECM or any electrical components.
* Don't tamper with the ECM: The ECM is a sensitive electronic device. Avoid touching or altering any internal components.
