Under the intake manifold. You need to remove the fuel rails and manifold to get to it. Not too difficult (about 2 hours)

make sure the battery is charged disconnect pos. cable use a test light to complete the circuit between the battery and the terminal you just disconnected if the veh. has a draw the test light will light up it is normal for the test light to be dim but if it is bright you will need to find what is pulling the currant the way i do it is start at the fuse box and pull the fuses one at a time until i find the circuit that is pulling the currant now keep in mind your radios memory is suppose to pull no more than .02 of an amp
