Is this an export thing? The footswitches I've seen on this side of the pond use Heyco strain relief bushings where the cable enters the pedal.

At the typical Fender 2-button footswitch you need:

Ground - provided by the reverb cable's shield, common to both switches.

Reverb switch return - the signal wire in the shielded cable.

Vibrato switch return - the separate (white) wire inside the cable jacket.

A stereo jack and plug should work. Might make funny, loud noises if it's ever plugged or unplugged while the amp is on...
