The only visible damage on the MLB was near the TPS.
Fixed it, but the device doesn't boot when the battery is connected. Once you disconnect the battery, it works fine.
Also, tested with a new battery, no go.

No idea where to start from, please help me.

Check if starts in SMC bypass mode.

Post exact PPBUS_G3H voltage w/ and w/o battery connected.
Be sure Q7130 is not shorted.
