This issue has been solved: I am leaving it on here in case someone else who might encounter the issue can search on Google and find the same answer that took me forever to find.

I was gifted an M6 by a guy after I found a ring for him. Never used one before, didn't really try, but my girlfriend has been using it. When we first got it the on/off knob felt loose, but it looked like it had been through a few hunts in its day and seemed to function ok so I figured I'd repair it later.
Turns out the nut between the plastic removable knob and base was loose so when she was trying to turn the knob, it was twisting freely inside the housing which caused 5 wires to break from their connections. Machine went dead, so that is when I finally fixed the knob (ugh). I assumed correctly what happened under the hood, but now I need some help.
If someone with an M6 who knows how and is willing to get under the hood and either take a picture of the connections on the on/off knob attached to the underside of the on/off control knob inside the control box, or enlighten me where these wires are to be soddered back on, I would greatly appreciate it!!
I know the red, black, and gray wires are grouped together on the smaller prongs in the picture, and the 2 green wires to go on the bigger 2 prongs, but in what arrangement? (The 2 green wires coming out of the plastic connections in the photo are the same green wires that broke free on their other ends.)
I am just trying to make sure the two green wires, along with the red, gray, and black wires, are connected properly to the underside of the on/off control knob.
Thank you for your time!
