No keyboard/trackpad on macOS, nor before?
Cannot acces boot menu?

Try known good trackpad flex/board.
At least inspect trackpad flex terminals and connectors.

I have cleaned the connector of the logic board again.

I have tried a new flex (trackpad to logic board) with new trackpad and new keyboard but same problem.

I can't access the boot menu. On the login screen, only the power key responds. Locking / unlocking screen.

With IOL Flex connected it does not turn on the computer, only orange light on charger but without battery. I don't understand.

I have tried a SMC reset (crtl + alt + caps + power button) and the charger responds. When I release the power key, the led changes to green and returns to orange.

SMC_LID level= 3.39v

EDIT: I have tried doing a SMC reset with shift crtl alt and power keys and the light turns green and back to orange. This means that it recognizes the keyboard and responds ... I don't know if this helps.

SMC reset has nothing to do with basic function of keyboard; is implemented by hardware (inside trackpad board)!

Check R4830 and L4820.
Also check all resistors related with trackpad connector.

R4830=3,3v (without flex i/o board) and 0v (with flex I/o board) mode ohms value infinite
L4820= 4,98v (w/o flex i/o board)

I check R4850,51,52,53 is good.

I don't have R4841 and R4842. I have only R4843=0,02 (scale 200)

So 3V3_S4 disapperas when LIO flex connected?
Check diode mode at 3V3_S0 w/ and w/o LIO flex connected.
Did you try another LIO board/flex?

So 3V3_S4 disapperas when LIO flex connected? ---> If I connect the charger with the flex i / o connected, the fan does not work and I have no voltage. If I connect the charger if the fan works and at that moment I connect the i / o flex (I understand that it is dangerous) the tension is maintained and the fan too.

Check diode mode at 3V3_S0 w/ and w/o LIO flex connected. ----> don't have continuity with GND I have checked all the line in all the components of the board and I think I have done it well

Did you try another LIO board/flex? LIO flex and board is new (I have two boards, 820-00165 water damage, with same trouble)

"don't have continuity with GND"
Can you post the readings???
Not only pure short is bad!
As you have two boards, compare the readings...
