BH gold digger, BH ultra mag sharp shooter, Garrett Ace Freedom plus

I recently won a contest and received a Garrett ace freedom plus machine with a crossfire coil. The issue is that the coil connector that would attach to the housing unit is broke. I have contacted Garrett and been informed that they do not make this machine or connectors any longer. Has anyone repaired or replace the connector on the coil wire or does anyone know of a different coil that would work for this machine? The housing unit connector has 5 total pins, 1 in the middle of 4 others. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. I also received a Bounty Hunter ultra mag sharp shooter machine in the same box. The problem with this machine is that one of the black wire from the battery connection is no longer connected, even if I hard wire the battery direct to the black wire it will not power on any suggestions/advice for repairing this machine?

BB, if you need help resizing it, one of our other Global Moderators (GoldDigger1950) has made a neat little program available to us in the download section.

Most Bounty hunters use two batteries.       On the Garrett,   try to extract the broken bit out of the connector and see if you can get it to push on.    I'll look around and see if I can find the connector.

@homefire, the bounty hunter does have 2nd battery connection I only showed the broken one. The Garrett connector broke at the connection tip on the coil wire and has been taken off of the housing connector. I am waiting to for it to come in the mail from the guy who held the contest. Not sure if I will be able to fix it. The garrett powers on with batteries installed, I am hoping to fix the coil connection and be able to use it.
