Reinsert the wiring into the microphone casing starting with the XLR plug. The XLR plug probably needs to be orientated in the right direction to be able to slide in. Look for guides on the side of the plug that need to be lined up right.

It helps to push the XLR plug as far as you can in using your fingers and then to pull it through with a pair of needle nose pliers.

Line it up correctly, and reinsert the screw you removed earlier.

Next, hold the switch in place with your finger and screw that in as well. Once that is screwed in place, stick the "on/off" label back on.

Make sure that the switch is orientated correctly with the label. In other words, when the switch is put in the "on" position, it should be sitting directly over the two tabs with wires attached to it.
