Default DualShock 3 Controller won't charge

I recently purchased a 320gb PS3 Slim from Amazon.ca that came with a faulty DualShock 3. The controller worked out of the box, but would not charge so it eventually gave out. Amazon was only able to offer me a partial refund and it was more than the retail cost of a new controller so I have no complaints there.

I'm wondering if anyone has any experience or tips trying to repair something like this. It appears to be caused by the mini-USB connector. Only 4 of the 5 pins seem to be visible. Are the USB connectors used in these controllers available anywhere? I may just eventually buy a replacement board, but I'm going to try and keep the cost down.
