JBE box Fuel pump relay problem

Hello guys, so after weeks of reading forums and watching youtube i found where my problem was with the car leaving my on the side of the road.
So after changing fuel filter and put a new pump the problem was with the fuel pump relay.
I took apart the whole thing and i saw this !!!

I was soldering back everything together but the car wont run just cranks, windows dont work and some interiors lights which i think i might have not did a good job soldering everything back.

Any help ? Or should i just get a new JBE box 😭

Actually check your fuel filter again. I read about many people not being able to start their car after replacing their filter. Something about the rings needed to seal properly. Perhaps the fuel pump seal needs to be checked as well.

one mention of the problem:

Alright guys i fixed the problem with the car stalling and shutting off while driving.
I either had to order a new JBE box or replace the relay soldered to the board.
I went with the cheapest option and guess what......CAR NEVER STALLS AGAIN.
