Laptop battery repair,

My laptop battery died suddenly so I measured its voltage which was zero?
Curious, nothing to lose I took the case apart and found the black
component arrowed

open circuit it is the main connection between battery pack and circuit
board, Battery measures full voltage before this device.
It's Klixton 10v9K 4MM70B1
this seems to be a thermal/current breaker
So anyone know were I could find a replacement,[1]
If I can't find the correct replacement part I am considering replacing
with
