Any decent shop or electronics person can change that connector. And the pin crimp-er tool is nice but not required. The pins can be crimped carefully with needle noose pliers and then soldered and shrink tubed. Again, decent electronic skills needed here.

You don't need a pin extractor tool if you plan to replace the pins and the connector, you should replace both. Just cut the old connector off and install new pins then seat them into the new connector. Also worth mention is that those wire harnesses have a shielded braid that MUST be also connected to a pin.
