Can someone tell me how to find a replacement connector like the one in the following pictures? While installing a new bath fan, one of the guys was disassembling it and forgot to unplug this connector and tore the wires/pins out of it. There are two round sleeves and one square sleeve.

It looks similar to a Molex connector, but the 3-conductor Molex connectors that have been coming up in my searches are basically rectangular with an arrow or triangle shape at one end.

AMP connectors (also called Mate-N-Lok) also look similar but certainly not the same. For one thing the AMP style has the locking tabs on the narrow edges rather than on the wide flat side.

I have been looking around on DigiKey (overwhelming number of options) and McMaster-Carr. So far I haven't found a match. Maybe someone out there knows what my connector is called or can tell me where to find one?

These can typically be repinned—use a little hook or pin tool (depending on the type of pin) to remove the pins, then reattach new wires and reinsert into the connector.

However, if you simply can't do that, see here: https://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/546524/what-connector-type-is-this-3-pin-connector
