Explanation:
As we cannot be sure this is on the dashboard it might be better to remain vague. I think this refers not to the button for requesting that the bus stops, but rather an indicator for the driver telling him, or her, that someone has requested the bus stops at the next stop.

pole at front of bus (here)


Explanation:
The request stop button is normally situated on one of the poles you can hang onto when standing in the bus. So, I think 'moble' here refers to the front 'pole' and would not be translated as 'a piece of furniture' or the like. But this could be a new system they are talking about, in which case I'm not sure which part of the bus they mean.

Sorry, that's not very much help is it.
