So on my way driving down the highway.. the ****ty *** orlando roads end up causing my front right pass-side tire to blow and it shedding up some of the wiring harness on that side. Well when i went to try to start the car it wouldnt start, and ended push starting the car and well it then drove fine no problems and i got it home and thought everything was ok. Well i go to try to start it again and it doesnt want to start, no cranking or anything. Like if the starter was unplugged but i checked that and everything is connected and it was working fine before blowing the tire.

So the question is i found some unconnected wires on the harness since it fell down when the tire blew and i had to tape it up on my fender to get it out of the way. And i'm wondering which wires down there could be causing this problem?

The wire isn't disconnected going to the starter, is it?
