i2c is a shared bus, devices are id 'd by their i2c address. Those i2c sockets are all daisy chained together. You can use any socket you want, well except for your one broken one.  
I’d give it a good look see for any foreign objects or maybe a bent contact or something. If you only just bought it recently you can likely get a replacement via the following link.
