Abstract
An electronic control device includes a circuit substrate consisting of four rigid portions and intervening flexible portions which are serially connected to each other. This circuit substrate is accommodated in a casing in such a manner that respective flexible portions are folded by 180° to dispose respective rigid portions to be parallel to each other. The rigid portions, positioned at both ends of the circuit substrate, mount connectors so as to face to mutually opposed directions. Other rigid portions mount electronic components and heater components. The outermost connectors are connected to different connection objects. The casing is made of a metal material so that heat generating from the heater components can be transmitted via heat dissipation gel to the casing and efficiently released to the outside.
