Default A.i.r pump

Had to remove the A.i.R. pump/blower to access rad housing screws. Found the plastic blower case cracked in several places. Still runs but makes an odd noise probably due to the case being toast, I'm guessing.
Has one 4 wire connector and one 2 wire connector. If I leave it electrically disconnected will it throw a service light? If not which one should I leave disconnected? Want to leave it in place so it looks original.
Don't want to spend $200.00 + for a replacement.
Thanks, Dave.

What do you mean by "Just disconnect the AIR"? Small plug, or big plug?

Duh! Just noticed the two wire plug is just a fuse holder (25 Amp) Will remove and try that.

I'm asking if you just want to disconnect it and leave it there so it looks functional.

Yes just yank the plugs off. It wont do anything.
