Comments.Text: Thank you @M(something?). I'm handy with a screwdriver so fixing ones myself are no problem - if I had enough parts. I'm looking at a bag of LEGO from my own childhood and most cables are incomplete... (yes, even missing the pins and the screws) so I need complete replacements. Maybe 11yo me wasn't good at taking care of small things. Maybe that's why I never had a hamster? :-)

Comments.Text: darn, I hoped the photo was of your cable. I had the same problem, but took the motor into an electronic supply place so I could try all the likely looking plugs and eventually found some. They were much cheaper than official Lego ones :)
