First post here, new to component level repair so feel free to dumb any answers down
This machine has had some work done, not sure what but previously only working on external display. I found liquid damage around the U8000 (looked like coffee, but maybe was flux) But I also found L9011 had been torn off the board, so replaced it and got an image on the internal. Cleaned the board and felt great as it all worked fine for a few hours, next day would not post. I found ppbus_g3h, pp3v42_g3h, pp3v3_s5 all seem good but now has a dead short on ppvcore_s0_cpu. No fan spin. Now I'm not sure what the best way to proceed is but hoping to learn (or move on if this is too stuffed).
