Looking to replace the male connector in this picture. Any idea what it is called and where I can get it? I'm in Germany.

Thanks for your help! Looks almost identical, but not exactly! The little plastic tabs on the edge are a bit further apart on the connector you send me. Or at least that's what it looks like on pictures I find:
Here the little plastic tabs are roughly above pin 1 and 5, on my connector it's more above pin 2 and 4... Hope you can understand what I mean. Any idea?
That's true. Maybe a PHR-5 JST Connector 2mm Pitch instead?

That seems to be it! Or "JST-PH"? Not sure what the difference is between PH and PHR-5. 2mm pitch seems to be it at least, and plastic tabs seem to be at the right place:

Just order some of the generic ones I find for " JST-PH" on aliexpress and pray? You are a great help, thank you!
As far as I know are the "PHR" series connectors a variant of the "PH" connectors. They also have a 2.0 mm pitch, but they differ slightly in their housing design. The primary difference in the "PHR" connectors is the presence of a latching feature on the housing. This latch helps to secure the connector halves together, providing additional stability and preventing accidental disconnections.

I ordered some of these:
With a little bit of luck it should be an easy repair. Thanks again!
