Question power steering problems - 93 wrx import

hi folks, on the power steering pump there is a wire at the back of it that goes to a grey connector.
well my problem is that the ps fluid is squirting out through where the wire connects to the pump.
common sense tells me not to drive the car, but would you say that i need a new ps pump, or is it possible to replace the wire?

any help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance

Lee
