I need some seriously urgent help

OK, I need the help of anybody with access to Mazda TSB's, I have an 06 Mazdaspeed6, I need to know if there are any TSB's about corrosion on the Alternator Positive terminal wire. The reason I need this urgently is because I had thought that My alternator went out on me, so when I went to remove the wire the connector fell right off the wire it was corroded that badly, so It looks like i need a whole engine wiring harness, and my Back up GSL-SE is out of commission with a severly leaking oil cooler.

Now I know this is not rotary related, but it is very important to me, so please don't flag this thread, I just don't know a better place to post it.

Any Help Would Be Sincerely Appreciated, since as of now I'm Up **** creek with no way to get to work.

Well I am going to drop my oil cooler off for my SE at a friends to get him to weld it back up so hopefully it will hold, but that's better than the $350 for the wiring harness on the 6 right now

How much of the wire is corroded? The first inch only or the whole dang thing? Either way you can replace just the section. On my REPU I even ran a new 6 gauge wire from the + alt to the fusebox and back to the battery. Not costly just takes some time.
