Loose Cable Car will not start

Drove the car today once but when I went back to drive it again it would not start. Found a loose cable which was on the right of the carburetor. The end of the cable has a rectangular socket piece which is gray and the cable has yellow and black stripes, it has PED on it to.

I dont think that a loose connection on the carburetor would cause a no-start, but it would cause a rough running motor. Did you plug it back in?

If it's the choke wire and the choke remained closed, it could cause a difficult hot restart.
