Main fuse holder on a 1500

Does anyone know what the part number is or where I can find the main fuse (30 amp) holder for a Nomad 1500? Mine is a 2000 carbed model. The only 30 amp holder I see in the online parts manual is for the main fuse block mounted in front of the battery. I need the one for the plug on the right side of the bike behind the coolant reservoir. It has a red plug on the wiring harness that plugs into it and it looks like a small black box. The 30 amp green fuse is on one side and the plug that goes in it has a big white wire for the ignition, a red/yellow wire and a black/yellow wire. Mine is corroded and I think what has been causing my intermittent problems for a while. I cleaned it up real good, did a 50 mile trip with no problems. It looks like this:

You should be able to find a fuse holder at any auto supply shop and splice it into the wiring. It should work as well as the original.

It's not the fuse holder itself I need but the black box it mounts in. It almost looks like a relay but the main harness plug goes into it. The fuse is mounted on one side of it.

How many wires come out of that box? Thinking a bit I do wonder why there is a black and yellow which is ground. What is grounded?

Why do you want a new one?

Can you pry this open?

Sorry I misunderstood the first time. You would have to call a dealer to see if that is available seperate or as a part of the wiring harness.
But if you cleaned it up well and use some anti corrosion compound you should be ok.
Sometimes you can open the plug up and replace the contacts, depending on how its made.
