Hi, I'm repairing some kind of farm equipment, a single pin is broken on the connector, I want to replace the entire connector for reliability, but i don't know what is this called. I looked at some electronics distribution sites and no luck, i also attached some picture. Thanks...

Did you check numbers, letters on that connector?
Did you check schematics , manuals?
And what kind farm equipment use this harness?
 

yeah i did check for everything, i haven't found a single clue, what kind of connector is it though?
 

I guess your connect belong to family of DEUTSCH industrial connectors .

I don't believe it's a MIL Spec circular connector as both Andre and Yura have suggested.

It looks like a DIN/mini-DIN variant which are typically available in up to 20 conductors.

It would be helpful to see the mating side and something for scale.

In any event you should brace yourself, whether it is a MIL Spec Circular connector or a high density mini-DIN, both are quite expensive.

They can typically range in price from $75 to several hundred dollars a unit.

Most of the high density mini-DINs are available with prewired pigtails, typically in the $125 to $200 range.

If there is enough cable to allow it, you may consider changing the entire pair for another pair of connectors.

Have a good look inside it - can you see any markings at all?

After years of searching, I still couldn't find the right replacement part, thanks for the help though. If it's gonna be that expensive for the part, i think it would be wise to replace the entire control unit. as for reliability as well... thanks for the help again...
