My Battery Connecter Pin Slot Is Broken

I recently just found my macbook pro after 2 years of searching, and come to find out I realized the screen was still broken from when i stop using it back then. I bought screen and thought I could do the repair on my own, now my touch bar doesn’t work and my battery connector on the board is damaged, is there anyway i can fix this? I mean, I can live with the broken touch bar but not with a battery that doesn’t stay on for more than 5 mins. I’m going to attach a picture of the damage.

Sorry ☹️ Not good, the connector is the BMC connection to SMC. Without it you loose the system’s ability to monitor the battery and it’s charging. The connector can be replaced by someone with good micro soldering skills and the proper tools.

@jakeyankey Looks like you lost the locking tab from the connector. I'd suggest to replace the complete connector. It is a Fujikura FF18-10A-R11AD-B-3H connector with Apple part number 518S00014 Those are available but a bit overpriced and hard to find in single quantity. Lowest quantity I've found was 2 on here Once you have the connector, you still need to find someone who can do the soldering for you. Not a terribly complicated task but anytime you solder on a logic board you will need to have some experience.
