Default 2013 48 sensor in switch housing

so I have a 2013 48 and I took apart the switch housings bc I wanted to get rid of all the switches on the handle bars and move them but there is a button on both housings does any one know what they are for. Also I cant seem to get the throttle cable out the housing either but the idle cable comes out just fine.


If anyone can help me out thanks.

Not sure what button you're referring to. Pics?
About the throttle cables, loosen them up first so that you get some slack, unhook them inside the housing, remove the ferrule and the just pull them out. Mine where seated pretty hard so you might have to use just little bit of muscle to pull them out.

Btw, if you're talking about the throttle side there's a switch inside the housing, that's the brake switch. Pull the break and your light comes on.

You perhaps refering to the Brake Light Switch (Push Button) on the right side and the Clutch Interlock Switch (Push Button) on the left side.
