Broken connector for the status light

While changing the fan in my Apple Time Capsule, I broke the connector for the status light. Is there a possible way to repair this connector where the 3 cables clip in? see picture attached.

Sadly, without a second one to trace out the lines it won’t be easy! Maybe you can find someone with one that can identify the lines function.

Apple never offered any schematics for their AirPorts or Time Capsules and the service guides don’t dig into explaining what the discreet wires within the harness does or connects to.

I did the same thing with the connector for the LED light. Broke the connector off the PCB. I am not going to be able to reconnect it so my question is will the unit run without the LED connected?
