Default car wont start!

when i turn the key on, the relay doesnt click, and the check engine light doesnt come on at all, which it usually does when you first turn the key. And my fuel pump isn't coming on at all, as i can usually hear it prime the system. and when i turn the key to engage the starter, the only clicking noise is from the ecu. checked all my fuses, battery's good, here are some pics of my relay after i resoldered it.



I do need a new cluster, the one i have got a little hot on the back side, and melted some of the plastic. it has been working, though, up until now. could that be it? I'm getting a new one next week, guess i'll see then. gonna try and find another relay as well. would advance or o'reilly's carry something like that, or is my best bet ebay or junkyard?

fixed it. it was a bad ground strap from engine to chassis. the one from the trans to chassis with neg. battery terminal attached. I had removed it when relocating the battery, and had put a different one on it. put the stock on back on and voila. DOH! i'll put this one in me memory bank.
