I'm not sure what I'm looking at... Which wire is disconnected? One inside the switch?

Seconded... Likely to that contact your finger is next to. You'll probably see some solder left on it where it is supposed to go...

Not familiar with that particular switch...I would assume you can pick one on the back and the one in the middle on that side. But I also know what happens when you assume (ass out of you and me)... Especially with electricity. If you have a multimeter, measure resistance between two like that, then throw the switch and remeasure. If it goes from 0 ohms to infinite, solder away. If not try two more until you find the right pair.

To add...I'm assuming you have this kind of switch...

The trick is to find which pairs are together...front/middle, or front/front and middle/middle

If you put the switch off does the resistance read high between those two?
