The voilet wire end!

I have a 2013 FXDWG and I just put it all back together. One problem, that short "violet" wire inside the tank attached to the fuel pump has come loose. The wire "end" has broken off. It "was" a crimp on wire end that looped back on itself to create a "spring loaded" effect and hold it in place. Does anyone know the name or where I can get that type of wire end? I can McGuyver it and jam some wiring in with it but I'd like to repair it correctly if possible,

Thanks to all who replied. I haven't tried Harley directly (not near a dealer) but I've scoured the internet and the service manual and can't find any reference to that connector. It's actually shown connected in the service manual with no reference to it! I also found a video on Youtube with a guy replacing his fuel pump assembly. He actually shows what it looks like and how to disconnect it if needed. Anyway, I found something that will work and it's "close". It's a female spade with a male piggyback on it (used for connecting 3 wires together). I used a couple of these on a hotrod recently. The female spade (small wire version) will fit over the metal tab for the connection and the male spade on the back (with a little help) will apply the pressure to keep it all tightly together. I'll be installing it tomorrow and hopefully be back in business.
Appreciate the tips.... Ride on!
