Car won't start. Snow chains cut the wires.

I install some snow chains on my 99 camry and it cut some wires on my car. The wires are on the inside of front passenger wheel. I guess the chains was too lost... The car die on the freeway but all the electric works fine.

I reconnected all the wires but it still won't start? I open the hood and I see a female plug hanging there? Anyone know what that wire for and where is the male plug?

Thanks eveyone for the help!
