Abstract
Disclosed is an electronic control apparatus comprises: a PCB configured to electrically control each part of the vehicle and have at least one through-hole in a side; a connector cover includes a connector part electrically connected and coupled with the PCB and a coupling part; a housing configured of a one-piece slot type to receive the PCB inserted in a slide form and provided with at least one housing-hole penetrating through the through-hole of the inserted PCB; and a hollow rivet configured to penetratively fix the PCB to the housing through the through-hole of the PCB and the housing-hole of the housing, wherein the hollow rivet is penetratively inserted into the housing-hole through which the PCB is inserted into the housing and then one end surface of the hollow rivet is physically deformed, such that the PCB adheres to an inside of the housing.
