Using an exacto knife cut the cable length wise. Some were there should be a loose wire just solder it together.Now you can tape the outer sleeve back or make one out of duct tape (which should be god for all creators).

One of the two cables might have broken off of the pcb inside the main housing of the power adapter. The cables have crimped ends which can break due to cable-movement, causing erratic loading/not loading although the light is constantly on.
