ABC control module removal

Folks, I have had all sorts of partial help on this along the lines of it is "under the dash" or it is in the "driver's footwell" but I simply cannot find the ABC module on my 2006 RHD SL55. If some one could help me with a bit more detail as in how to remove carpet from the side of the console as a CL55 drawing shows it located there. Ebay is full of them for sale so I guess I am just an idiot retired mechanical engineer. Please help this geezer get rid of the red warning after the installation of coil overs and roll bars. Cheers aplenty if someone can help me.

Cheers pmercury, I will have to look again as I have removed both driver and passenger under dash covers. I will report back. Thanks again.

Once the RED ABC warning has been removed by removing the controller, can the regular STAR remove the grey warning? If so that would solve the conversion to coil overs problem with the messages.

The red warning can be removed by fuse. I only remember it is in front right (LHD passenger side) fuse box.

I had the dealer disconnect it. It took them awhile to locate it on the driver's side of my rhd car.
