IPad air 2 no power on

Hello I have a ipad air 2 come in.
Not charging and not turning on.

It was sucking .01ma to.00ma on and off.
I swapped tristar and it still doing the same thing.

anyway I found heat on u8650 nd had a quick look around at the caps.
they were fine.
so I removed u8650 which did not remove the short.

I found the short on the other side of nand on a cap.

My question is. U8650 is a usb charging controller which I assume works with tristar.

I can't find any data sheet on it and I can't put it back on.
Can I jump McClain to the 3v3 line on pin 5 and 6
and what about pin 2 which is a 1v8 switch line.

Any help is appriciated

Thanks

If that line was short, it is unlikely the PMIC is bad. That can happen but I doubt it in this case. Pull U8650 from a dead donor iPad if possible
