Hi Josh, This is about a simple as repairs can get, although it's still best left to someone who has some experience soldering. A new connector can be had at several places in the net, for example RS components have a pack of 5 of them for £1.06, so about 21p each. The new connectors come with 6 inches or so of wire - you could either trace back the old connectors back to where they attach to the circuit board, unsolder them and solder in the new ones, or (slightly simpler, but less elegant) you could just cut the old connector off, join up the wires with some solder, then use insulating tape to make sure nothing shorts out. 10 minutes work either way once you have the connector, as long as you can solder - it shouldn't be too hard to find someone who can solder if you can't, or don't have the kit.

The size was in the clue... 8025 = 80 (80mm square) 25 (25mm deep). And it's 12v. Current might vary a little, but shouldn't have much effect. So, it's one of these then: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/X-Fan-RDH8025S1-80-x-80-x-25mm-Axial-Fan-12V-Sleeve-Bearing/112777521421?hash=item1a4210690d:g:TfQAAOSwBOlahBNM £7.58, free postage. Bargain.

If it is in a 2016 bass, I would be talking to Fender about it - it isn't reasonable to have to replace the pot after only 2 years (or less!). They should repair it themselves, but might be equally happy to send you a $5 part for you to solder in, if you are happy to do so.

Definitely ask Squier first - it only costs an email! wanted ad has to be second - someone has got to have upgraded some of these in the past, and has a full set of 4 lying around doing nothing. other options.... There's one on ebay for £5.99, plus £2 postage, or a full used set of them for £16 (or best offer). Not sure what they're made of, probably a cheap steel, but the zinc plating makes it hard to weld it back on, so I would try something like silver soldering it, if you can find someone with the knowledge and kit (if you could let us know whereabouts you live, local folks might offer to help!)
