Hi,
A colleague of mine spilled water (only water) over his MBP 13" i5, rendering it somewhat useless. I've lifted the back off and had a look at the damage and can see corrosion spots across the logic board but nothing too awful. Machine won't power up, battery indicators fail to illuminate, hdd, ram screen etc. is all fine by the looks of things, just the LB which is damaged (possible keyboard damage too).
We've bought a new one to replace it but this one is basically dead so I thought i'd have a look at fixing it. I've read people have success repairing them with contact cleaner (isopropyl alcohol), compressed air, soft-brushes and thermal paste so thought i'd give it a go.
Has anyone done anything similar? Know of any good reading material, tips etc?
I'm aware it's a long shot but have heard of others having success with it so thought it worth a try. Any advice as always is greatly appreciated.
