You will probably find it is an active device that requires 24v and common such as a proximity switch, a passive device such as a push button that sinks to common does not cause any ill effects as the only two connections are usually the input and common.
Although if the push button has a lamp on it, you will have common for the PB and 24v for the lamp in close proximity to each other.
Also look for pinched cables on the 24vdc, as mentioned, plugging one Honda plug in one at a time should pin it down to the general area.
