Got in my tj with boots and bumped bracket with the code reader connector.

The plastic bkoke on the mount bracket and body of connector.

What a bad location and easy to hit getting in and out

So what are the options for repair or replacement?

I have it taped/ covered and pulled out of the way

Can you replace the OEM connector and bracket

Can you get a pigtail or can you get a adapter block that would plug into the OEM and the use it if yiu need to plug in the code reader?

Appreciate any experience with this repair
 
If it’s broken so much that your not sure where which wire goes, there are factory service manuals here in the resources forum. The wiring diagram section should map out the pin locations.
 
Take some pictures I would like to see how this turns out as mine works, but its just hanging there.

Relocate it so it is pointing down just above the panel to prevent from happening.
 
Just re-pinned a new connector onto mine last weekend, was a lot easier than I thought it would be, when I was done I bent the bracket farther back up under the dash
