Seems all the drama happened around the SMC


Corroded track on R5193/R5117/R5177/R5100 replaced and rewired broken joints
U3710 had a bad track to SMC_OOB line, rewired that
After all this was repaired, it turned on and seemed ok, so I ran it over Ultrasonic Cleaner, then 0.02A and dead. maybe a cold joint occurred, so I went and reballed the SMC thinking it might have corroded underneath. But no liquid residue underneath.
Checked the continuity on all these corroded tracks. I am missing something, but not sure what. What is the best way to approach it?
