What is this transfer case wire?

Hi, fellas.

This little wire was attached to the top of my transfer case but cut like that. I've attached a picture.

What is it? Can I replace it? Or can I fix it with a barrel connector or something like that?

Thank you - Thomas

Looks like the 4x4 indicator light switch connector.

If there is so wire left on that and you have the other end just use a butt connector to join the 2.
Or if where it connects to the switch is it threaded get a eye let end and a nut and bolt it on.

BTW on my T18 / NP435 the back up light switch plug was bad and could not be used so I made a Weather Pak plug work.
The back up light switch is just has 2 studs, not threaded.

I ended up doing what you suggested and butt connected the wires together. Worked pretty good.

Thank you - Thomas
