Don't just twist them together and tape. If possible solder the wires and use heat shrink tubing to insulate the repair. If you can't solder, use butt connectors and use heat shrink to insulate. Super easy repair. If you can't find the repair connector, you have enough wire with the damaged part to repair and reuse it.

Will do thank you! Can i use 18 gauge wire to reconnect the broken parts?

Use 16. Two of those circuits are 16, one is 18
1. This post reminded me to go reset the mousetrap under the hood in my motorhome.
2. @Ducati1098 is the best.
3. I'm with @Mayhem Mike. I have the driveshaft recall and was concerned about long lead time and the dealer keeping my Bronco while waiting for parts. So I went in, "strongly requested" they order parts first. They did and will replace next Wednesday.
4. Oddly, I have the 4L backup camera issue also, but the SM found no record of it for my VIN. a battle for another day.

If you only need to fix that one, yes. Ideally you’ll want to use what the previous wire was. Worse case if all 3 are damaged, you can go slightly larger and use 16 on all 3. Just don’t use a smaller gauge wire

This.
Solder if you can, always better long term than a crimp connection. Finish with shrink tube, just don't forget to slip the shrink tube onto the wire before making the repair....

last annoying question! How does this look to you? I peeled everything back i think i have more than enough cable.
If you have enough room, just splice the sides back together and don’t worry about ordering the new pigtail. I would fix that black/violet wire also.last annoying question! How does this look to you? I peeled everything back i think i have more than enough cable.
It was just difficult for me to see how bad it was from the first picture.
