It isn't original. You'll have to figure it out.

Press it....... You know you want too....... Do it........

















Seriously though see if you can look up under the dash and trace any wires going to it.

You can use a Torx t-15 to pull the panel and see what color the wires are behind it. The defrost is usually in that spot.

My guess is they were trying to install a starter button in the car. try putting the key to the run position and push it.
