It may seem strange, but mice are fond of electrical cables. If they nest inside the engine bay (this can happen if the vehicle is left for a long time in a country shed or garage), it is very likely they will chew through electrical cables or soundproofing materials.

The video in question shows a spark plug wire chewed through by the mouse and some soundproofing material in the rear of the engine bay, near the air filter. In these situations, in addition to restoring any damage, it is essential to ensure that the mice have been completely eradicated.
