Default black puck?

I just got my first HD a 2012 Street Glide. I was taking some parts off and getting myself familiar with were everything is. I found a small black puck with a red wire under the seat in front of the battery with a red led on it?? Any one know what it is?? The guy I bought the bike from did have a power commander installed on it I see that on top of the battery, not sure about the puck.

Your message is messed up, man. Kinda hard to figure out what you're trying to get across.

Did you ask the previous owner? I know if I sold my bike to someone and they called with a question about it, I'd be happy to answer it.
