New Owner Boom BD125-8 - Gas Gauge and Hanging Plug

Hi Fellow China Riders!
Long time lurker -first time owner and poster here from Los Angeles!
I just picked up a Boom Vader 125-8 (Lil Duc) From Pete at Kronik Racing in Simi Valley.
Awesome owner and went out of his way for me so shout out to him.

I went to fill up gas today and put 1 Gallon in and my Gauge still showed I was empty and it was blinking. I also have a wire that is hanging and is unplugged. Figured they were related which he verified must of either fell out or not connected by Boom the distributor.

Pete offered to fix it for me and to schedule some time with him to do it but in the mean time I figured I'd do some research to see if I can fix it myself (That and I wanted to continue riding!). He gave me a run down on what I needed to do basically to remove the Trellis Frame which I was able to do but still was not sure where the plug would to.

I decided before I start tearing down more pieces off my brand new motorcycle I'd ask on the forums to see if I could get some help.

Here are some pictures of my progress:

I did a search and found some good posts here like:

After some research I think I've identified the wire here:

So now that it is identified - I was hoping I could lay on my fellow China Riders to help point me in the right direction as where to plug this hanging wire into so that I could get it working. I was not sure if the plug was to the gauge (it did not seem like the wire would reach) - or if anyone was familiar to where I plug this into so I don't tear the whole bike apart.

I'll continue to research but thanks in advance everyone and I'm enjoying the 5 miles I've put on it so far!
