I screwed up- now need help

I had some bad glow plugs so I was manually shorting the relay and let the ignition activation wire short to ground.
now the truck won't start or run unless I manually supply power to the ignition post on the GPR.
WHERE does this wire come from? I have NO blown fuses and my fuseable links are good (2 at PDB under hood). I dont have a book for this truck yet and my PSD is down so I need to get it going ASAP. thanks to all for at least reading this.
Keith

P.S. I have replaced my GPR and all plugs now so I don't do this again.
