PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an assembling structure of a JB and an ECU that prevents an erroneous assembly due to a different combination of the JB and the ECU. SOLUTION: A key groove 12b is formed in a JB 1 while a key 22 is formed to an ECU 2. When a combination of the JB 1 and ECU 2 is a combination where the JB 1 and ECU 2 are aligned with each other, the ECU 2 is assembled to the JB 1 while the key 22 and the key groove 12b are aligned with each other. Alternatively, when it is a different combination where the JB 1 and the ECU 2 are not aligned with each other, the position of the key 22 and that of the key groove 12b are not aligned, and the key 22 is prevented from being fitted into the key groove 12b. By this, even if it is difficult to determine a difference between the ECUs 2 only by the appearance due to standardization of components or the like, when the combination of the JB 1 and ECU 2 is a different combination where the JB 1 and ECU 2 are not aligned with each other, it is possible to prevent the ECU 2 from being assembled to the JB 1, thereby preventing an erroneous assembly due to the different combination.
