Need help identifying a component

[electroguy98]

Hello..I was trying to replace the left analog stick of my ps4 controller and while heating the solder pads with a hot air gun I burnt the connector circled in the picture. I need help in identifying the component and also from where I can get it. If not possible then please let me know if there's an alternative.
Thanks

Hello,

What is the pitch of the connector? (the spacing between the foil contacts)
What is the number of contacts?

You could have a look here and use the pitch and number on contacts to reduce the search.

I doubt Sony used ‘off the shelf’ parts. Heck, all their solder joints dried or cracked through the 80s & 90s. The individual connectors pitch might match some readily available multi pin connectors, but they may not mate/lock together.
If I were you, I would buy a broken/ non working controller and re-use the connectors, cables, switches etc. OTOH, you can always change both for ‘off the shelf’ multi connectors. Yes, a PITA but doable.
