Aqualink RS8 indoor panel lit up like a Christmas tree!

Hello. We opened the pool yesterday. I finally went to reset the date and time in the indoor control panel only to find every light lit up, even hidden ones.
I popped of the face and unplugged it, then plugged it back in. No change. Pressed the reset button. No change. The screen says 6700 rev C.
Looking back, at the end of summer in 2023 this same thing happened when we were about to close the pool. I decided I'd deal with it at opening 2024. When we opened the panel was fine. Now the problem has presented itself once again.
Does this mean the board at the outside equipment is bad, and/or the inside panel?
Should I just upgrade to the iaqualink system with the phone app?
The issue is we're listing the house for sale at the end of the month so I'd hate to drop $1,100 at this point!

Thanks in advance!

I will check that out I went out to the equipment and despite the inside panel, everything was working as it should..however, I reset the breakers and now the relays click but no pumps go on. I've tried both pumps and the Polaris pump as well. I tried the reset button on the panel and reset the breakers several times. It can't be that there are suddenly all of these problems, so I'm thinking the main board is bad now??
Any thoughts?
 
Just to update ..I opened the control panel and made the 2 wires seat better. I also checked that everything was connected properly and intact. Put everything back together and low and behold the system is back working as normal! For now anyway. Lol
Thanks to all, especially to member ajw22.
