Chad,
Okay - then I have not been there. I was resetting the ECU by pulling the
fuse above the ECU. I was asking about the actual ECU case behind the
passenger side carpet and under the plastic covers. once the ECU is removed
and turned over, there are what appear to be torx or allen set screws
securing it closed. How does this open?

Doug,

  The hose at the moisture trap is under the hood. There is a black plastic
cover at the rear of the engine compartment. The moisture trap is under this
cover. This is the most common place for the hose to blow off. The ECU is
accessed from the passenger side floor. You'll have to cut the carpet along
the console if it's never been out. The cover for it comes off with 2
phillips screws. It's kind of a pain to wiggle out though.
