You have the following code:
//Create button
var $button = $("<button>Go</button>");
$("#menu").append($button);
The challenge wants you to keep the $button variable and only remove the code that appends the button to the menu. You have removed all of it and so the $button variable doesn't exist anymore. This is what the error is telling you.
You only want to remove the line that appends the button.
