[SOLVED]820-00165- Won't Start off the battery.... Stumped

Yes. Battery is reconized and charging. 210 cycles and voltage is 8546.
Yes. The board does power on when I short those pads.
It won't Start even if all of that is unplugged. I have the board on my bench and when I plug the battery in the board does nothing... No fan spin unless i short the pins... If i plug the charger in it starts fine,
After more diagnosing, the board operates normally with they keyboard flex cable unplugged, however, when the keyboard is plugged in, the board won't even start if I jumper R5115. So what would cause it not to start with the keyboard plugged in?
Just took out the ribbon cable, BURNED.... Could it be just the cable??
All of the pins on the tracpad board look excellent.
I cleaned the cable, It starts now with it plugged it, but immediately you can smell burning board from the trackpad area.
Ok.. I will order a new cable.
Thanks for your help Duke. The new cable still burned and after looking at the trackpad logic board under the microscope it is fucked up bad. Sold customer new keyboard and trackpad.
Ordered a new Top cover assem. Should be here tomarrow. Will let you know.
Everything is fixed and working as expected....
