Engine Oil Pressure light flickering after oil change

Hi guys,

So i did an oil and filter change over the weekend, while under the car I noticed a wire had come loose, looked to be from a plug juuuuust above the oil filter, shortly after turning the car on the oil pressure light started to flicker, however it's not a constant flash. Car still runs fine, no extra/missing noises. The problem I am having is the wire is impossible to get back into it's socket, I thought I had put it back in securely at the time but after the light came on, jumped back under and it had fallen straight out.

I will attach some photos later to show what wire I am talking about but if anyone has any advice that would be great.

This is the socket the cable goes into. Located just above the oil filter.
