whats this box?

Behind my dash I have my yellow buffer box and a large metal ecm box, what is the smaller metal box. It shares wires with the other to. I thought the buffer was my VSS so whats the other one called and what does it do? All three are next to one another..

Two metal cases are ECM and SIR. Smaller one with yellow connectors/tape is SIR aka airbag

The rear defrost relay also has a metal case but is significantly smaller than the others
