...and then this happend!

Having noticed a random wire sprouting from inside the jack plate wiring (the neck pup cut-out, so I investigated under the scratch plate) I wrongly assumed that it had detached from some solder spotting the copper tape east of the treble volume pot. My soldering made things worse (the bridge pup also cut-out) so I removed my attempts and continued my investigations armed with the schematics to navigate.
But then to my horror, this dropped out....
the random wire had broken free; a short length of wire with two ends at each end.; four connections.
Four connections to what?
I've spent a couple of days trying to figure out various wiring diagrams but just can't work out from where it has broken free.
The neck pup still doesn't work, the bridge pup does.
Is there a photo 'help' diagram of how the two jacks should be soldered?
I can't get head around the technical illustrations.
