have i killed the PCH on this board? it had a bloated battery and the battery has been disconnected. i can power on with MagSafe 2 85w fine . so i took the board out then put in a good chassis with good battery. now it doesn't power up at all with battery nor charger.

I've checked L3095, L7701, L7520, L7320, L7310, L7630, L7430 and they're not consuming power after turning off.
i haven't had the chance to...
UK, Birmingham. only cost around 6pounds within EU. i'll pay for postage. i want to know whats wrong with it.
i'll throw other boards in as well.

probably theres crap under pch/cpu.
2informaticos, do you want this board for free and maybe you can fix it. its a 8gb version.
yep, i've checked this area many times.
1st I've tried using other chip from a donor board of same 00165 board.
2nd I've made of own using piernov's clean me region method, i had many successful doing it on other boards as well.
oh yes pulse , 3.3v for a split second.
CPU_VCCST_PWRGD - 1v...
minor liquid found on U1930. I've replaced and it's still no go. red/green light on the charger but no fan spin.
here's are the measurements:

rtc: 3.3v
PP5V_S5: 5v
pp3v3_s5: 3.3
pp3v3_s0: 0v -3.3v for a split second then goes 0v. not pulsing.
pp1v5_s0: 0v...
the board had prior repair attempted. the board was liquid damaged and was missing an SMC.
if I use charger only, the board always turn on fine.
if I put a charged battery. turn it on, fan spins, use it as normal, it can charge the battery, passed ASD EFI and ASD OSX.
then a couple of hours...
