D4 Not starting

SWMBO's D4 wouldn't start - not so much as a click. Turned out to be a knackered earth braid in the driver's side front wheel arch (which had also blown the 25A ECU fuse in the fusebox next to the battery). In fact, wiggling the earth braid with the engine running caused it to sparks,

Put this here in case it happens to anyone else.

Why LR didn't put a plastic sheath round the braid is another question...
