Stubborn Dash Pad

Yeah I bumped something with my knee the other night and it hit the metal dash, thereby lighting up the entire interior for a split second. I think the thing dangling down might be the reason my dash lights don't work... It has a red wire and a black wire and looks like it's waiting for a light bulb. Any ideas? The heater/AM radio lights work, just not the ones that tell me insignificant stuff like how fast I'm going and how much gas I don't have.

The dash is on the back burner until I can get the suspension in order and get some bigger wheels under there.
