Default help needed,whats this called?

need some help please

my air con fan on the bmw has stopped working
getting power to the fan but it isna`t spinning,on stripping down there is this 10 of these connectors

the main motor plugs into the connector and the connector is held in a plastic sleeve and push`s onto a copper wire.
it is roughly a 5mm male connector and the bottom hole that push`s onto the copper wire is roughly a 1mm slot.

anyone know where i might be able to get some from or even what they are called?
tried google but can only find normal push on connectors.
thanks for your help

dave

i would look into doing it better than original - solder or whatever

it is a spade connector of sorts but it locates a copper wire at the bottom in a plastic sleeve and a female connector from above above,can`t really attach a seperate wire instead of this as motor will be spinning very very close to it,can`t be sure wire wont catch
