What is there that doesn't work?! What is it fastened to at the end that is attached, the instruments or something else?

Yes, look around for a brass eyelet or a connector that no longer has a wire crimped to it. Look for an eyelet or a connector on a bolt or a metal tab, or a butt connector from someone else who was in there before you. Happy hunting. YD
