SMI AF1 toad brake question

[adonh]

I have the SMI AF1 toad brake system which is great. Here is a question. My toad is a 2013 Chevy Sonic and there is not a lot of room under the hood so when my SMI AF1 was installed the control box was mounted on a bracket up front between the radiator and the engine. About the only space that would work. I was adding windsheild washer fluid today after returning from the store and this little engine puts out a lot of heat. The SMI control box was warm to the touch. I don't know what is in inside of the control box but would it be effected by the heat from the engine. Thanks
