820-00165-A Liquid Damage Wont run off Battery or Charge.

Have you tried a new battery??? This sounds like a bad battery to me.....

If PPBUS_G3H stuck on 8.57V, battery is not charging.
You receive "Replace Now" alert for battery, which usually means bad battery.
Magsafe light stays orange even without battery connected, as normal behaviour for all MacBooks since 2013.
It switch to green ONLY when battery is fully charged 100%.

Try known good battery (even old), before wasting more time on it...

Sounds like a plan. I'll give it a go and report back.

Thanks for your time !

I'll be dammed.. Must have shorted the battery when all the fun happen.

Battery for the win ! All is well.

Thanks !
