Oh for forks sake!

Hi everyone I have been busy trying to replace the motor on my panther gutter vac. Pulled off one of the forked crimped connectors and it snapped In the terminal.

I have had trouble finding another connector online which looks the same it measure approximately 3 mm from prong to prong.
Does anyone know of any stockists which would sell such a thing? Got Tuesday off so was going to go to a few electrical shops see if they can help.
Many thanks

Another option might be to solder the bit back on that’s broken off ?

I've seen those before on another motor brush connections. I thought it was a Dyson DC01 but I can't seem to find any images to see it I am remembering correctly.
Does the fork attach to the brush or is it the bit that goes into the spring of the brushes?
As @Pjj suggests solder it back might be best bet.

Thanks Ched there are 2 of these connectors attached to white wires which connect to the motor. I have successfully attached one of these but it was the other one that snapped. They don`t attach to the spring. Dont know much about these things unfortunately. Will ring GVS tomorrow.
