C-Washer in Electrical Connector?

Hi all,

I was troubleshooting my parking brake warning light late last night, and disconnected the parking brake warning switch under my HMMWV. Like all HMMWV's it has those single wire waterproof electrical connectors. When I pulled one apart a small brass looking c-washer fell out and fortunately enough fell right in front of my face. I'm unsure where it came from. Did it fall off the male side or the female side, and how does it connect? I'm assuming this is required to keep the connector together.

I can't find a YouTube video of anyone reassembling a wire using one of these waterproof electrical connectors so I'm unsure how to assemble them.

Thank you. That thread is what I've been looking for.

Now I've have to wait for this hurricane to pass before I can work on my truck again.
