    Those aren't standard buttons from Freightliner. Unless someone here just happens to recognize them, your carrier would probably have the best answer.

    Red button is, was for Military loads, ammo, DoD loads.
    Panic button, as some loads have an unmarked government vehicle close.
    It’s gets attention.
    Sometimes they disconnect them if sold.

    You’ll have to pull dash and unhook it.
