 		The part came from the electronics(obviously)part of a gas powered scooter. I have seen these in purely electric scooters too. It is in a metal case and the bottom looks like some sort of stuff like they fill flyback transformers with except black.


The scooter has a horn blinkers and when you hit the brake it lights up two brake lights,and has electric start. Anyone have a clue as to what it may be?

 		Knowing what it connects to would make it a lot easier to figure out what it does... The first thing that comes to mind would be the module for a pointless ignition system, but that woulnd't fit well with electric scooters...

Judging by the fact that it was designed to be able to dissapate a bit of power I would assume it has something to do with the battery, either some type of charger or protection circuit.

It's not? Then no idea because those colored things in the pic sure look like wires to me.

I think it might be a motor controller? Are there wires (if they are wires) that we can't see in the pic?

 		I think that he means that the scooter that this part was taken from is not electric, not the module itself- I had to read that a couple times, too smile

 		On the picture there are no high voltage connections visible so it looks a bit like a voltage regulator.

 		could be the bridge rectifier then.
Test it with a multi meter, I think the green ones would be the AC side.

I dont think it would be a rectifier. The battery is already dc and the charger outputs dc and even if it didn't it would not need such a big rectifier
