I was curious where the "Caution: Do not remove cover. No user serviceable parts within. Removal of cover voids warranty" label from the front-center of the ECU door inside (in front of the cartridge bay) came from, looks like it was used on some old equipment by North American Manufacturing (and possibly also CEI Control Enterprises, and Hunkar Laboratories). Mainly servo valves for hydraulics as far as I can tell.
Here's an eBay auction with a very similar label:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/126005085230
It was also used on the Ecto-1 radar dish (on the side of the red "arrow"). As you can see the eBay photos don't exactly match the one in the film, the text is spaced differently. So the ECU/ECTO versions were probably printed for a different product, or maybe rejected because they were too small (and ended up in a pile of junk at APEX).
Not exactly a "groundbreaking discovery" because we already know exactly what it looks like (and the versions posted in this thread are already significantly more screen accurate) but occasionally determining the origin/lineage of a label gives us new leads on the ones we can't find. Maybe this will pay off in 5 years
