No drop at VCORE, board is not functional; no need to check USB mouse.
Check around SPI chip, for corroded resistors, traces.
Don't forget R7403...

Just for testing, swap the BIOS/SPI ROM chip from another 3115 onto this board. If it chimes, you have either bad BIOS or dead/faulty chip.

If you DO get a chime/boot, then load up a new BIOS with the original/correct serial number, MLB and a clean ME region. PRAM on 1st start.

If you DON'T get a chime/boot, then you can eliminate BIOS/SPI ROM chip as the cause, and replace the original chip back on the board.

Try ram slots one by one, Reseat Ram.ect

You have high v-core. It can be:
Ram not so good
SPI ROM
And often can be caused by a bad SMC.
