Replace those ends. It costs maybe a dollar in materials, but will save you headaches.
Because I guarantee, in writing, that this is going to happen again. And almost certainly when you need the A/C the most.
Here is an affordable kit that will do the job:

It will be something like this. Note that there are different parts based on the stud size (diameter of the opening in the ring) and the wire size.
I'm assuming that it's a ring terminal. It looks like one from what little I can see in the picture.
You will also need a crimping tool for a non-insulated barrel crimp, like the one shown. Do not try crimping that type of terminal with needle nose pliers or similar.
Alternatively, it may be easier to get a kit with insulated terminals and a crimper all in one box, something like this. In that case, you won't need the shrink tube either.

It's cheap and comes with a pack of connectors so that's good. https://smile.amazon.com/Hi-Spec-Strippers-Connection-Insulated-Terminals/dp/B01NB9EEKJ/ref=sr_1_5?s=power-hand-tools&ie=UTF8&qid=1511813021&sr=1-5&keywords=crimper+stripper
You can probably find the same general item at a hardware store, just a cheapo crimper with a pack of connectors.
Look for a line, ridge, or texture on one wire or the other to use to match them up. Or a different insulation shape. Most have this.
So your general steps are:
