Liquid damage minimal - R5117, replaced.

Inspected board at 45x, no signs of further liquid damage.

PPBUS = 8.6
3V42 = 3V42
S5 rails = 3V3 and 5V

SMC_ADAPTER_EN = 3V3
PM_SLP_S5 = 0V
PM_SLP_S4 = 0V

No power cycles

Any thoughts please?

UPDATE: Replaced R1451 PM_DSW_PWRGD.
Now fan spins up for 10 seconds and then off. Connected a fully charged working battery to check for USB initialization but nothing. all_sys_pwrgd goes high while fan spins.
Also powers on from battery in the same way but no mouse LED. CPU does get hot.

CPU Vcore present I assume? This could really be anything, corrosion under SMC or something stupid.

All power is there for the time the fan spins, incliding CPU.
i already put another SMC on there just to check if there was crap I could not UC out of there.

Guess I'll check all the PCH signals and see if that leads to anything.

This one will suck, these symptoms can be anything really.

Yep, I know.... These things are like a black hole. Every now and then I gravitate toward it and before I know it, I've lost an entire day.
But, I post in hope.

Never mind, it's going back.

Thanks Duke.
