Narrative:
In operations at ZZZ; it was noted on the deferred item list that the green left aileron servo was inoperative'ed that morning in lga; deferral #X. During pushback and start in ZZZ; it was noted that the amber box on the flight/control page indicated that the blue servo was inoperative. Talked to maintenance and returned to the gate. Maintenance advised me that the wrong connector on the left aileron had been disconnected.
