Default why do i need a micro on v-glide?

'99 series with v-glide,I upgraded all the wiring,FnR switch and installed new micro switche in the v-glide.The controller will power up with the throttle at rest,as soon as i step on the throttle and open the micro switch it powers down.Can i eliminate the micro on the v-glide and why is it needed.Thank you

The orig MS in the Vglide is a 3 terminal switch so it could be used as a NC or NO switch. If you replaced with the same switch you may need to move one wire on the MS.

i replaced it with a 2 terminal switch and it didnt operate right.I just tried a 3 terminal and still not right.Will it actually hurt anything with out it?I bought the cart not running and have done a ground up restore on it.

Are you sure you are on the correct leads on the 3 terminal? One is normally open and the other is normally closed. Not having the switch will leave your controller on when the key is on like possibly overnight or all week? Not good.
