Thermistor broke on sidewinder x2

Thermistor broke on sidewinder x2

I started a print and when I came back to look at it, the nozzle was moving with a big chunk of pla attached to it. I don’t exactly know what went wrong, but anyways. I unmounted the nozzle, cleaned it, but in the process, the thermistor broke. I don’t think it’s wise to solder it back on given it goes to 200 Celsius, so I wondered if there’s a way to repair it somehow, or if I have to buy a new nozzle?

Sidewinder X2 starts heating up uncontrollably

Pretty much what the title says. As soon as the printer turns on, the extruder starts heating up without any input or way to stop it, which results in smoke from the filament after a minute and an automatic shutoff after five.

I can provide pictures for any component needed, thanks in advance.
