Glow plug wiring, fairly common issue, doubt a new one would be expensive, they are a little fiddly to fit though

as said glowplug wiring you were lucky u didnt have a fire fused at 40 amps plus when you have rectified it check the main [big] fuses bet it blew one should be available not just a wire tho moulded block etc might cost more than you think
