Ha...... had exactly the same happen. Bugger hey ?
Mine actually took the wire right off at the plastic fitting on top of the diff.

I've rewired mine using a gland on the diff and a sturdier cable ( ABS line ) with breakaway plugs on top. Also used a flexible stainless steel wire between the diff and chassis with the new wires tied to it.

It will take a fair bit to pull this out but used cooper crimp lugs (electrical connections ) on the SS wire so that it can breakaway on the limit.

The Yellow/ White is the locker solenoid + with the black being ground.
The Yellow/Tan is the locker switch in and the Dark Blue / Yellow is the switch return

Fuse 52 provides power.
