Default Water Level light

I have had my Hfs 3 working flawless for a few months but one dat I noticed I wasn't getting full boost then looked at the aquamist gauge water level light was on. I think fill the tank full now any time the aquamist activates the water light turns on and activates the failsafe but the water injection light doesn't turn on like it was hitting a failsafe. If anyone has had this issue any input would be appreciated I will pull the bumper off soon and look at the level sensor and connection

I have tried today turning the WL CW a few clicks and I get a failsafe activated. Then I turn it back (CCW) 2 no Water Injection Light but the Water Level light comes on and the tank is full. Tried full CCW and the Water Level light still comes on with initial injection and goes way after the failsafe is reset.

I have tried today disconnecting the water level sensor and still does the same thing where the water level light comes on without the water injection light coming on and going into a failsafe. I reset up SC and WH and WL and still I get a water level light on initial boost and it stays on till it stops injecting. The light is not flashing like as if I was out of water

There is a chance the pump is seized. It should never be mounted in the engine bay.

I do have in a compartment that see no water and very minimal heat no more than inside the car, is there a diffinative way of testing if the pump is the issue because I pulled the jets earlier and I got a good spray pattern

I had taken my pump apart and found it was slightly corroded on a few screws and the walls would still be enough to cause an issue like just the water light coming on

I got that part of the pump apart looked like not much water intrusion there. All the bearings spin freely, But if you think I need a new pump I'll order one as I'm going to get your dual tank set up so I can move it into the trunk so I don't damage anything further.
