There's plenty of places that both sell new ones or repair yours. Just do a search here on tuners.
Some companies:
ECM ToGo
Applied computer tech
Engine control units direct
foreign auto computer
ECMTuning

LightningGSX here on tuners also repairs them - just pm him. I'd also recommend testing the relay and it's wiring to make sure there are no shorts or you may burn up the next ECU you put in.

thanks man yall have been big helps what all do i have to do to test that relay ### 200 bucks a pop is gettin kinda old this is the second computer ive put in
 
Since your FP was working, the FP relay is most likely ok and it was just the bad ECU holding the relay on. But if you really want to test it see the Test link I mentioned above, post 5, 2nd to last paragragh ("Applying +12v to pin 10..."). After thinking about it, however, I think it's just your ECU that's bad.
