    2004 225 fuel filter water separator question.

    Hey all, had an alarm, checked water separator and wire was corroded off. Is there a part number for the wire itself? Or must I replace the whole assembly. Also, will the motor run with the wires off the sensor or will it constantly throw an alarm. Thank you
