I've seen em in the back in a battery box, never seen em anywhere else tho.. Thay are a CANBUS electrical system, don't use a non Led test light ANYWHERE near em & don't short out ANYTHING, I have replace many ecu's after some one has jump started or fitted a new battery.. Take it to an auto lecky, if something goes wrong you have a leg to stand on..  & you don't want to know the price of a ECU..

Gamble paid of.Run on dyno no issues. |

When did Suzuki switch over to CANBUS? I wouldn't have thought an 04 model would be CANBUS. I've jumped started my 2002 GV plenty of times with std jumper leads (no polarity or surge protection) and I thought it was essentially the same as the 04 model. |

The current shape is, not the earlier GV. |
