17" A1297 Macbook Water Damage Problem


hi guys,

may have posted on sometime ago on reading other similar threads on water damaged no charge issue wonder if possible mine not severe advice on , test if can help?

got mac book knowing water damaged (ex demo...overhead flood in shop) - did power on automatically mag connection...keyboard faulty (so power button) - replaced keyboard..reinstalled osx... fantastic... bought new battery didnt charge either.

have been using mac while on psu no problems @ all....even found fellow 17" mac owner charge battery via mac...just didnt lose time , wireless settings etc.

love have charging again , hoping maybe 1 fuse/resistor fuse has blown?

when opened mac found corrosion on various parts of board laptop closed , boxed after water damage....so battery have been live...and possible plugged in @ time if out on shop floor....so, since working apart charging....the battery feeding time , settings (pram?) not turn on battery..only mains?

go far getting smd rework station if worth it?

cheers. :)
 

first thing i'd open , thoroughly clean major components, in case, logic board. typical method of cleaning rubbing alcohol , toothbrush. i've had great success reviving dead or partially dead boards nothing cleaning.
