Hi Jake The black box is when you come in to fast for a landing and crash air transport take it and have it checked so they know what went wrong.. No sorry I couldn't help it I haven't got a clue what it is but you should give a discription of your car ( before you get jumped on for not doing so )and a pic or two to help them out.. Someone will know what it is for sure ... Happy new year!!

I was reading this earlier and was about to say haha if it has a bunch of different wiring colors then it MIGHT just be NON oem. Glad you found out what it is.
