Default odometer reset button

Anyone have a used odometer reset button for the dash pod?
mine fell apart. could putting the two wires together short it and make the odometer reset? I think I did that and nothing happened with the ignition on.

thanks

Don't have a button but I believe the engine must be running to reset the odometer.
