yep what he said ^^^

this reminds me of a few weeks back when i sat down and translated both the fuse boxes for my mates evo lol :p

usually i find 'ECU' is usually still in english

[tRipitaka]

I think the ECU fuse is found in the engine bay, rather than the interior..
That's what I assumed when I saw ECU on it :P
I have the same problem as you, and got a pic of it from another forum member..

[tRipitaka]

:P

[Steer^Gimic]

thanks guys. all sorted now. thanks for your help

i thought i might ad these to help ppl in the future.
basic katakana charts as this is all that is usually found on ECU's or in your car

and one that includes just the basic katakana and also basic hiragana

if you get confused about what something means justsay it out loud a few times and you should get it. eg. rajio = radio, heddoraito = headlight, roobiimu=low beam and so on.

2 things that arent on the charts are ー and a small tsu 'ッ'
the ー just extends the sound of the vowel (like another 'o' or something)
the small tsu 'ッ' before a constanant kinda doubles the constanant sound.
eg　ヘッドライト = heddoraito = headlight

hope that helps.
this concludes japanese 101 with panda :)
