Question Newbie Needs Help!

I recently purchased my first 1:16 scale tank, a Heng Long Tiger 1. I decided to try painting the tank after seeing the amazing tanks that other people have created on this website. After painting and reassembling, I've discovered that the recoil feature when firing no longer works. The tank will recoil if I hit the recoil button on my remote but not when I fire the tank. When I reassembled the tank, I had a two wire connector (Red & Black wires)coming from the turret that I couldn't figure out where it plugged into. I would really appreciate it if someone out there could offer advice on how to straighten this issue out. Thanks in advance guys.

That two wire plug is the trigger switch and that;s why it's not acting right. That two pin plug goes on the last two pins of the five pin socket right next to the three pin socket that goes to the volume knob. Did that make any sense?
