Good news!

You could change it but now you know a fix. Also, you might find by looking closely at the current one that a pin is bent/loose/whatever.

Any auto electrician or the like should be able to figure it out if you'd rather not risk doing it yourself and perhaps making it no better (or even worse).

Good news indeed and thanks for reporting back.

Someone here was battling with replacing the socket, but I can't find the thread

Glad you got there.

The proper name for this connector is SAE J1962. If you search eBay, you will find all manners of connectors, splitters, extensions, gender changers, etc. Cheap, too.

If it was me, I would take a hard look at the existing connector and try to repair whatever pin seems out of place. Remember, the actual OBDII diagnostics is only available over the ISO 9141 protocol, so pin 7 and 15.

It will also need power (pin 16), and one/both of the grounds (pins 4 & 5).

Often 15 is not needed.
