The kill switch (or engine cutoff/cutout switch) is a toggle switch on the right handlebar switch assembly prevents motor operation as a separate control from other interlocks.
; Mounting
: On the right handlebar switch assembly.
; Operation
: Push up/forward to cutoff motor operation.
: Push down to enable motor operation.
;When to Cutoff Motor Operation
* Whenever the bike should not be operating.
*: This is a redundant safety mechanism to prevent injury or damage.
* If the vehicle is on its side after a crash or other incident.
*: This prevents spinning up the wheel.
* Whenever someone unfamiliar with the motorcycle is sitting on it or nearby.
*: If they intentionally or unintentionally touch the throttle, this prevents their lack of familiarity from causing a surprise excursion.
;Troubleshooting
: The [[MBB Console#Status|status]] command in the MBB console can report its reading.
: While energized, a voltmeter will indicate 5V across the input leads if the switch is open, and 0V if shut.
: While de-energized (and confirmed), resistance across the switch will be high if open, and low if shut.
; Connections ([[Gen2]])
: It is wired as a digital input to the [[MBB]].
: SPST where the off position is an open circuit, for failsafe considerations.
: Red 20AWG - (assumed high/positive-5V) to MBB pin 23 (per 2013 trace)
: White 20AWG - (assumed low/0V) to MBB pin 24 (per 2013 trace)
