MacBook Pro charging issues after a liquid spill

i using mac book pro 13" (mid 2009 released model) until day when wasn't charging. tried charge after few hours , worked. did not notice behavior changes (back-lit keyboard, keyboard becoming sticky, screen) next few days did not care of taking apple store.

after few days, found not getting charged again took apple store @ first ( have apple care) informed replace necessary components free of charge. next day received call apple store informing me had sort of liquid spill on logic board , not cover under apple care terms & conditions. asked pay $800 fix it.

, here interesting thing..
1. when used charger in apple store (genius bar) getting charged
2. not charge similar t-shape adapter using since 2009
3. hoping adapter issue, bought new 2012 mac-safe adapter (not t shaped) gets charged occasionally

took mac home , after 20 days checked (with hope) if chance working or not , boom..it getting charged , working no issues until had recharge it.

own research on web , ifixit, tried clean logic board had blue color stains on (very less) using isopropyl alcohol & compressed air , put dry out couple of days. again gets charged , works absolutely fine until had recharged it...( not detect macsafe - no light).

------

after reading through mac's varied behavior of getting charged, can 1 me suggestion , recommendations. thank you.

 

sometimes can take days damage liquid spill manifest itself. think logic board shot due spill determined apple. grasping @ straws here, did charger liquid on also? try charger if have access one. not sure though.

sorry hear misfortune spill. luck.
