In theory it should and mine does. Most bilge pumps these days are float style, meaning if the switch is off, the pump will still activate once the float reaches a certain threshold (if the battery is on). I see mine every so often turn of when we are at the beach even through the switch is off, but when I take my boat out of the water and put it on the trailer, I flip the switch and water comes out even though there was not enough water to trigger the float to turn on. Looks like your PN is F4A-U8360-00-00, and judging by the owners manual, it looks like the switch needs to be on, but the pump will not run unless it detects a certain amount of water (please reference bilge pump section on the second page)
