Hi there. If the wires connected to the mass air flow sensor (MAF) was broken and all of the wires were touching each other, then the wires would have shorted out the MAF sensor. I recommend repairing the wires and not just taping them. If you are unable to repair the wires, you will have to replace the pigtail plug that plugs into the sensor. Then the sensor will need to be replaced as it was shorted. The sensor is tied into the engine management system. If you need further assistance with replacing your MAF sensor, then seek out a professional, such as one from Your Mechanic, to help you.
