Over the weekend someone spilled a drink next to my MacBook Pro. I think liquid entered the macbook from under the macbook. The computer turned off. I have opened the case and dried off what I can. I am now putting the Macbook in a bag of rice and waiting a few days until the macbook is dry before turning it back on.

However, I have noticed that the 6th led light (those small green lights that indicate battery life) is staying on. What does this mean? (The first picture)

When I click the battery led light button, the first light still flashes as usual (indicating a dead battery, second picture). But that 6th light still stays on. I at least hope this is a good sign that my macbook can be salvaged.

Any fix on this I am having the same issue and have no idea what is going on.
