Transmission 13-Pin Connector Adapter Plug Problem

Hello To All,

Good afternoon. I have a W208 Mercedes Benz CLK320. One of the 13 pins on the 13 Pin O-ring Transmission Adapter somehow came off. How would I go about fixing this issue without replacing the entire part? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I regret to advise that when you inserted the plug into the conductor plate and broke off a pin---you got screwed---your only chance is to purchase a new conductor plate. Be careful the next time!!

There must be a way. I googled an image and think it is as attached.

I know a good tip that may work if you have snapped a pin. If you have a syringe needle or simliar you may be able to push this into the broken pin base, then use a little super-glue and it should hold it in place. The needle works well as the point pushes its way into the base and is strong, then you trim off to the correct size.
