General Is this EPROM ECU still good or is it fried? (pics)

I need some help guys. I bought an eprom ecu off the classifieds and just received it. I opened up the case to check out the board and immediately noticed that in one corner it looks like a circuit got fried. I circled it in red with a close-up. As you can see, it was burned through.

I was hoping to get dsmlink but now I don't know if I have a bad ecu or not. So my question is whether this ecu can be saved -- perhaps a new circuit soldered in, or am I screwed? Any advice?

That's a blown sensor ground trace. You can get more details on our wiki page. We can easily repair this while the ECU is in here for the socket installation.

I am willing to be his 3 posts on here may be the culprit since it seems to be on a points-earned basis.

Cool, I'm glad it was something minor. I'll go ahead and have that done along with the capacitors when I place my order. Thanks!!
