my 98 XLT 2wd SOHC v6 automatic explorer is crapping out on me

ABS light is on
Air Bag light is on
Speedometer is dead (Tachometer work fine)
gas gauge reads to half when its full

3 mechanics later(1 Ford Dealer) and $200.00, they tell me its the computer,
they have checked every abs sensor, cable wire, and they come up with a bad computer, can someone give me any input, tell me where its located, I tried to get a haynes repair manual but everyone around here is sold out, I do all the mechanic work on my mazda and jetta, so I have a good understanding of auto repair.....but not this vehicle.....please help....

The computer is in front of the firewall on the passenger side. it's stuck i believe about 2/3s into the firewall and is bolted in. i have a spare computer laying around but its for an OHV :( not a SOHC - i dont think you can swap those two.
