thats a tough one. you could try solder it short and see what happens, it might not be a critical component, i have done this before but it is not without risk, and could cause instability or permanent damage, only try as a last resort if you have nothing to lose. As for identifying it, from this picture i cant make out any markings on it, if there are any, you would have to ask the manufacturer.
