Hey, lucky you caught it in your garage. Mine let loose when I was taking my wife back and forth to the hospital when she was pregnant . I had to get water out of a stream where I broke down, and vice gripped off my heater hoses to limp home.
What a stupid design. a big , cheap , plastic pos quick connect, where a hose clamp has worked just fine for the last 50 years .
Good job on the wiring repair !
