    What you have there is a broken switch. You'll need to replace it. The plunger is missing as well as the whole rest of the top.

    Now, what you have: That is the brake switch that plugs into the right hand brake lever/mastercylinder.

    Order a replacement, leave your's connected until the new one arrives so that you know how to connect it.

    then we'll help you get it routed correctly.
