Sounds likely.

Is it obvious where the wire should be connected? If so - try soldering it back on. By opening it you have already invalidated any warranty your may have had on it Wink so it's worth a try as it is pretty useless as it is.

If the wire has broken off a circuit board it's usually possible to tell where it connected. Also the wire will quite often retain the shape it had when installed - so it's usually close to the end of the wire.
