Default Radix intercooler pump

During my winter "overhaul" I noticed the plug on my intercooler pump has cracked, and doesn't want to stay plugged in. Anybody have a part number, or know where I could get one? Looks like there might a Ford emblem on it, like from a Lightning, but I can't make out a number.

I broke one clip on mine awhile ago. I searched for a while for the plug to no avail. It is a Ford unit. Go figure.

That's exactly what happened to mine! The little clip that locks it on broke off.

The Mercedes SLK32 uses the same pump (Ford) Heres how they get around a broken plug. Basically, cut the wires and use 2 small spades and be done.
8. Now for the electrical. You will note that the C32 electrical plug to the old pump is completely non-usable with the new pump. The new pump has small spades protruding, where the C32 plug is for very small posts. I cut the plug off of the existing C32 wiring coming to the pump, stripped a 1/4" piece of wire, and used two small female spade connectors, which slid right over the male spades coming out of the pump. I then slathered on some West Marine Liquid Electrical Tape to waterproof the whole thing. Not the prettiest solution, but it works.

Or contact the Ford dealer and tell them you need the connection for the Ford M-8501-L54 intercooler circulation pump.

OR...Contact Maganacharger and tell them to get you the Ford part number or sell you a replacememnt. You know they get them in bulk.

As I recall, it looked like a Bosch fuel injector plug, correct?

I can't recall what it looked like, because mine broke off a LONG time ago.
