I had a similar issue and similar fix. I cut off the end of the connector where the original +ve wire was soldered, drilled a small hole into the end of the connector, inserted a new wire, soldered it and then used heat shrink tube to protect it all.
Works as well as it used to, though my main issue was tidying it all up so there wasn't a live wire floating around behind the dash.. I have a cup holder that mounts into the cig lighter socket, and think that over the years it turned the socket enough to break the +ve wire from the connector.
