Not sure what your asking, a snapped wire needs replacing or a new connector ?
If its a snapped wire, release the pin and re-make the connection itself, push repaired connection and pin back into the connector.
If the connector itself is damaged then it might be easier to replace with a new plug/socket combination.

Hey, thank you for the reply.

I tried taking the spacer out, but with no luck. Was hoping to find a replacement plug and just snip and resolder. Proving difficult to source as I don't know correct name or any reference to what it is or does 🙈

I'll have another go at getting the spacer out 😁

Spacer ? Not sure what you mean, the individual sockets don't have names as such and new replacements aren't available either, the pins are held in by a Barb inside which needs to be released, normally by using a thin pin inserted from the front of the connector this pushes the barb up and the connector pin can then be pulled out from the rear of the connector, see these images for an idea of how they work http://bit.ly/2N3R21T

Thank you, I was referring to the pin as a spacer. It took a lil butchery as it didn't want to come out. But got there in the end and it's all soldered up and reconnected. 😁 Can continue with the rest of the rebuild
