Where can I find the Cruise Control Brain - 1981 SC

I have searched the site and the car and for Pete's sake I can't find the unit. I see the cable and where both ends plug into but i see pictures of the board on here in threads and I have no idea where it is. Just ordered the Bentleys and will be traveling down the road of testing my cruise control unit.

Thanks,

Dave

A BIG word of caution when using the Bentley to trouble shoot the cruise
control operation. There is a glaring mistake in the trouble shooting chart!
The test of the clutch switch is completly wrong and will lead you to
think you have a bad clutch switch. Here's a link to a post I made on this problem and will save you a lot of frustration!

Just for reference, it is under the passenger side floor board in my 87 Carrera.

I hope I don't break the rules here but I sent my Cruise unit to Jamesdean59@gmail.com....aka Kris and I have to say the unit came back with a super quick turn around and I plugged it in and my cruise is working perfectly. Shipping and fixed and under a C-note. I could not be happier. There are bargains and then there are bargains with quality workmanship and service with the later being the exception these days. Can you tell I'm thrilled???
