It's not such a little box - it's about the size of a paperback book. You'll find it under the left side of the dash behind the glovebox. It has three connectors - 6-pin green, 6-pin black, and 32-pin blue.
EDIT: Sorry, I didn't realize you had started another thread about the BCM and that it was for your 94. As I said in the other thread there is nothing in the parts list showing the location of the BCM on a 94. My description above is for 98 and up but it might be similar on your car.

The silver box under the console is the air bag module. It controls air bag deployment and records the last 5 seconds of its sensors (throttle position, speed, braking force, etc.) for accident investigation.

Sounds lke you are describing the rap relay assembly or the drivers autodown relay. They did not get bcm's until 96. Well sounds like you got it fixed though so thats half the battle. Only 96 up airbag DERM modules have recording capability. They are one use units. 95 prior had reusable airbag control module with three separate arming sensors that sacrifice in a collision.
