What version is your controller?

It looks like the motor bus bar is shorted to the heat sink.

If you wired up your controller using the 500Amp cougar mosfet schematic rev 2D that is found on the wiki page--it has a serious labelling error on connector J5 from the controller board to the power board. J1 and J12 are incorrectly indicating their polarity and connection to the battery pack B+ and B-. This may be the source of the short circuit.
