Default How to repair speed sensor connector?

I've been chasing an erratic speedometer and transmission issue. I think I may have found the issue. I disconnected my output speed sensor on my 2002 Grand Caravan and one of the wires very easily pulled out.

I read somewhere there is a repair for that but can't find it. Can someone give me some pointers if I am able to repair the connector or do I need to replace it?

The dealer has the connector repair kit or the junk yard and cut the wire and connector off back 2 inches and solder the wires.

Actually I tinkered enough with the connector that I was able to pull the pin with the broken wire out and soder a new wire onto it.

Re-installed in existing connector, sodered other end, good to go!

Wacky speedo and transmission limp modes appears fixed! yay!
