Where is the Smart control unit located?
Years 2007-2015

Answer

First of all, it should be noted that there are two control units on the Smart. The one that manages the car electronics (called sam) is located under the steering wheel where you can also find the fuses. Instead the second control unit manages the automatic gearbox and you can find it under the passenger seat.
