I would be all over that lol. I had wire extension kit laying around so used same color as pin that broke and just extended that wire. I'm almost positive those 2 black wires are reversed where their supposed to be.

Do what SLV said too and loosen the housing to make sure you don't have a pinch. That makes sense...After that, it is all wiring or connection in the molex...

Do you have a meter? If so, you can use it to check continuity to eliminate Molex issues. Just check on each side of the connector with them connected. If you have continuity, you have a good connection. After that, it has to be wiring in the wrong order...

It sounds to me like one of two things.
1. A pinched wire in the on the control housing, or,
2. One of the pins in a connector didn't seat properly.
I'd guess the pinched wire though considering everything on that side is out.
Loosen up the housing almost all the way and turn the switch on. If a pinch occurred, it could release with the loose housing. If not jiggle the wires inside the loose housing to see if you release a short.
Are these Z bars or other bars with a sharp corner? The corner can rub through insulation and cut wires or create a short.
Just a few thoughts.

When I did the internal wiring. My father in law grabbed the bunch of wires with needle nose when I left the room. Said he was trying to pull the wires rest of the way thru so now I have to fix his dumb moment
