Hello ace_944 (87na),
The little wires are soldered to the tip you broke off.
If you are careful you could clean carefully, apply flux and gently solder:

1.the little bit of wire visible in the OP sending switch
2.to the OP sending switch stubby post remaining
3.to a short piece of 16/18 guage stranded copper wire
This assumes you can still see a bit of the wire-hopfully hanging out 1/8 inch
from the OP sending switch

If successful join the new strand of wire to the harness- "G" or "WK"

If this fails, hop in another car and purchase locally for $60/80 or have it shipped for $40. Pelican Parts has both VDO and FAE

I have not tried this repair, it just was an idea or temporary fix.
