Battery not charging after water damage...replace missing components?
Continuing my cleanup/repair of 2 rMBP 15" machines suffering liquid damage, I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to repair logic board components on one that had some residue and a component or 2 detached after cleaning up. This machine will not recognize or charge the battery. In visually comparing the 2 boards, I notice 1 or 2 components have been knocked off the board in question. Is this something I can repair, along w/ replacing the backlight fuse?
The missing component(s) are right in the center of the attached picture. This pic is of the top side of the board, by the left fan (as you look from the upright orientation). Sorry I don't have an arrow, but those of you familiar might recognize where they're missing. There are 2 sets of empty solder pads between the chips, just above the "R33V" chip, and perhaps some add'l components missing to the left of those 2 sets. Can anyone tell me what is doable here, and what components to buy, if that's possible?
Thanks!

Cette question est-elle utile ?

Fred Turner,zoom out a bit so we can see where the parts are in relation to the whole board. Also, give us the serial number for your computer so we can properly identify it and the logicboard. Unless of course it is the same logic board from your previous question. than we can use that one

LOL, we meet again! :-) Yes, this is the same serial # as the previous question. I'm not sure if the 2nd photo I just uploaded shows you enough, but I can take another, if you need. I shot these through an "extra-magnified" portion of a reading magnifying glass, hence the lack of scope.
Anyway, the area in question is basically inboard of the right fan. You have to take out the logic board and flip it over to see it; or, if you imagine lifting the keyboard and topcase off of the logic board, it's just to the left of the right fan. All of these rights and lefts obviously being w/ the machine oriented rightside up (or the opposite of how you'd be taking it apart). Does that help or is it confusing matters? If the latter, tell me how I can better describe.
Thanks,
Fred

Hey oldturkey, did that 2nd photo and description help? I can take another photo if you need. I've ordered the backlight fuses from Mouser, but would love to order the parts missing here, too, if we figure out what they are (and if you think they can be replaced). Thx, Fred
