Yea trailer brake controller, the handle lets you apply the trailer brakes manually

Re: What is this thing for?
Some of the old style brake controllers are opeerated from brake fluid surge and was connected to a brake line usually around the master cylinder. If you remove it remember to block off the line or you could loose you brake fluid. You don't need the controller unless you are going to pull a trailer.

Re: What is this thing for?
That's for taking off if you don't plan on pulling a trailer...
