coffee damage, torn down, dried out, now not charging.

Hello,

Coffee spilled into my backpack and got into my laptop. After drying it out in rice for a week, I started it up, it was charging and working (trackpad, etc) but the keyboard was not working.

So, I did some ifixit reading, bought the tools and took it apart. It looks like there was water damage on the trackpad (one dot is red there) and the I/O board just looks ugly, but everything else looked fine. I put it back together, and now nothing. It will not take a charge, and it will not start up.

So, should I scrap it? I can't afford a new one.

Should I buy a new I/O board and trackpad?

Can someone recommend a better option (a reasonable repair person/company).

The insides are pretty cut and dried, but I'm not sure if I should sink more money in parts or if there's a way for someone to do a diagnostics on it to see what's not working.

Thank you so much in advance!

This is the DIY help form - that means ''you do it yourself'' - we only give Answers you could take it some place and get an estimate (Apple).

You can run the numbers on a new DC in/out board and top case.

You can do that, or, sell it for parts and take that $ plus what you'd have spent on repair and buy a new laptop.

Rice alone is not a "fix" for liquid spills, but it does dry things out rather well. If not cleaned corrosion may continue to worsen over time.

If this answer is acceptable please remember to return and mark it.
