MacBook Air A1466 820-00165 liquid spill through the rear vent. Was powering up but no keyboard. Fuzz around SMC and trackpad connector ribbon but nothing major. Ultrasonic cleaned and replaced the ribbon. Now I get a Magsafe light and no fan spin, chime or display.

It does respond to SMC reset though by switching to green and back to orange.

PPBUS_S5 = 8.6v
PP5V_S5 = 5v
PP3v3_S5 = 3.3v
SMC_PM_G2_EN = 3.4v
RTC_G3H = 3.3v
PM_SLP_S4_L = 0v then 2.2v every 1-2 seconds < not sure whats going on here
PPBUS_G3H = 8.6v

I'm not sure where to go from here. Any help would be really appreciated.

The same, check for corrosion on U1900, U1950, U6100, J6100, resistor and traces around U6100, and ofcourse SMC........

Thanks for that. I went back and U1900, U6100 & U1950 connections didn't look great. Removed that and replaced the solder on all of them. J6100 looks perfect. Also fixed a broken GND TP behind U6100 (probably didn't need to) Anyway, it all fired up and works perfectly now. Thank you for your help
