Default Ka ECU problem?

I was told by an auto electrician that I had what was a common fault on a ka which was water ingress into the ecu which rots the terminals away. He said that I will have to replace the ecu and the loom or part of.

The problems started with wipers going fast then slow, headights bright then dim and all the dash lights coming on. this then resulted in us breaking down as the engine cut out.

I have got the ecu out so far and can see that there is a screw holding the terminal block in position, the only access to this screw is from inside the ecu. I have unpicked the seam hold the ecu casing together and exposed the circuit board but can't see the screw head yet, not sure what to do next.

54 Ka 1,3 petrol 3dr

Any advice would be much appreciated.
