Micro USB port pulled off

Hey guys I just bought a racing wheel and it uses female micro USB to connect the pedals and the stick. I accidentally yanked one of them and now the pedals micro USB is missing. If I put it the other one it wont work because its the sticks. PLEASE HELP ME!!

Welcome to EP.
I think the best would be to contact the firm you bought it from,
they may be able to repair it.
 
is there a way I can fix it?
That depends a lot on your skills. You would have to dismantle the wheel (is it screwed or bonded together?), identify which USB wire/circuit-trace goes where, unsolder the damaged socket, then solder the wires/traces (extended if necessary) to a new socket.

It fairly easy to dismantle (it is held with screws) but who should I take this to like, who are the people who do this king of stuff.
