behind the fusebox (see illustration). The
function of the unit is to replace the various
control units located behind the relay tower
on earlier models, and to reduce the
complexity of the wiring harness previously
required.
2 The CCU incorporates a diagnostic feature
for connection to a Rover dedicated test
appliance.
