Default Ecu problem

Hello,

I bought the lc als wasted spark chip and board, i fitted it to my ecu and i have issues it seems the two yellow relays dont start and i have constant spark when i power the car not turn on the car just the electrics, also i spot a problem in the board you will see in the pics. If the ecu is dead can i save the chips and put it in other l8 ecu i have plenty. Does anybody know, got the same problem? What could cause the ecu failing?
With a another standard l8 the relays engage so i have power on fuel pump which i didnt and everything seems fine
