The simple plug and play solution is to buy it from the bike manufacturer. And how do you know the controller is bad? Did you swap in a known good one?
.
If they will not sell you one, then then you can go third party, but you probably have to buy a display too. Your son's bike doesn't even appear to have a display. Maybe a LED unit that selects assist level?
.
The bike looks like the Hyper ebike they sell at Walmart, Is it pedal assist only and 36V?

Looks like the controller is inside the downtube. When considering a new controller, you should measure dimensions of the existing one and get a similar size to ensure fitment. You’ll also want to see what connectors are existing on your controller.
Aliexpress has been a great source of parts, for me. A KT controller and display are the best. I’ve tried BrainPower and I realize that I don’t like it. It’s squarewave and the motor gets noisy (choppy) at low speed.
Something like this MAY work, but you should really do more troubleshooting and provide more info before any purchase. The problem may have a simple resolution. I see numbers on the display, so it powers on. Does the throttle work? Maybe the brake lever is stuck and that disables the motor? What else can you tell us about the issue? Also, what is the exact voltage of the battery? Looks like 36v, but it could be 48v.
