I have an Alpine HU that needs a part, but I dont know what it is.

It was mounted on the ciruit board (surface mount) and is VERY small,  its black, rectangular, and has three prongs, one on the front and two on the back.

It got fried (my fault) and I need to replace it, but the top were the info was written is fried.

I am assuming this is some sort of transistor, but without the info I dont know for sure what it was.

Can someone guide me in the right direction. Im going to give Alpine a call this week, but I doubt the techs will help and Im not willing to pay for a schematic if I can even get one.

Any suggestions?

its really impossible to say unless you have a schematic, surface mount parts use standard footprints, 3 pins could be anything, transistor, SCR, FET, darlington, the list goes on...
