Fiat multipla ecu connector ?

The ECU/Diagnostic connector is behind the little access panel to the right of the Bonnet release lever.
Not tried my Code Reader yet, but I think the instructions say to connect it before switching on the Ignition.

ECU connector ?

Have you actually found it there though?
Knowing how car makers like to torture us DIYers, I wouldn't be surprised if they moved it around between years/models . . .
