Hi I have turned the nut the wrong way and now it just rotates in the hole. How do I fix it?

Unfortunately, with great difficulty, as you will have stripped the thread.

You will need to remove the cables, undo the backplate, pull the whole assembly (including the cable holder/backplate), and carefully try to take a Dremel to the nut until you can remove it.

There isn't anything actually stopping the assembly being withdrawn once the bolts securing the cable holder are undone. There's an E-clip behind the oil seal, but it's not a retaining clip.

It's best to pull the whole assembly, as you will have greater access with the Dremel head, and can more easily manipulate the backplate out of the way.
