    looks like electrolytic cap, but one line should be not solid (not filled with colour) or could be one spark gap

    Sir Jestine
    the question which you have given for us is unique and googlable.

    the above symbol shows two directions as from my knowledge.

    1. Variable Capacitor / Gang Capacitor.
    2. Same with Fuse symbol

    thanks you

      Hey after my maxi scooter failing to power on the ecu when my positive battery terminal was touched on and off when the scooter switch was on. It failed and after taking some time checking the EFI ECU pcb, I saw something like this but in green color and it broke and I saw N symbol. Could this be the one which failed about surge or spike incident 8 caused to my ecu

      Hi Tahir,

      This is a varistor symbol. If NC it will just print N.C and it does not have a symbol.
