Recently my cat thought it was a good idea to chew through the hose of my heat gun built into my soldering station.  :palm: So I (think) I found the tubing, already had 24 AWG wire, but now I need to find this connector along with the crimp contacts. It's such a simple and normal type of connector, but I am not very skilled in Electrical devices. I am much more skilled 120V+ electrical.  :-DD

Anyone know where to find these?

Where it connects to is to the right of the component labeled R7, and the second picture is the actual connector with the wires.

It might be a JST PH.  You need to post more info for a sure match though, like the pin pitch and a less potato quality picture.

If the connector and contacts are in good condition, why not just chop off the old wires 3"-4" from the connector and solder the new ones to these.  A bit of heatshrink and you're done.
