I recently did the valve cover gasket on my car. While disassembling everything one of the 3 middle bolts on the valve cover that the wiring harness is connected to was rusted really bad and snapped. Now the wiring harness is only connected to one of the 2 bolts and the car won't start. It clicks once but doesn't turn over. All the lights work headlights AC everything turns on but the car won't start. Does anyone have any ideas?

Go to the junkyard and get a new bolt + cut off the chunk of wiring harness that broke and splice it on.
