PITA starter

I picked up my M1008 a while ago and almost made it home. I found that the starter had broken a bolt and the end bracket wasnt there.
I was able to remove the frag remains of the broken bolt fairly easy and was able to acquire new bolts and a bracket from the dealership for less than $10. I reinstalled the starter and NOTHING not even a click.
I planned to pick up the under dash relay to install tomorrow but discovered a fried wire under the hood. It is a blue fuseable link on the power strip. What does it connect to and where do I find a replacement?

I don't know where it went, but you can download the -20 tech manual and go waaaaay down to about page 900 or so and view the wiring diagrams. It probably goes to one of the alternators.

Looks like you are gonna have to repair the wire....or buy a harness....doubt you wanna do that...looking at IPC and MM looks like the link is in line with wire and would need to be spliced in....maybe I can comeover this weekend and bring my meter and some tools and we can troubleshoot a little better...hands on!!! you grilling right??? lol
