Yes there are... You realize you can blow the logic board forcing power up if the board is not completely clean and dry? They have not moved since the answer to this Question.

I have tried those pads but no luck, I have disassembled the logicboard, I am getting a green light from the magsafe the fans are connected but it does not turn on.

There was some oxidation near the keyboard connector, I cleaned it with a brush.

How do you clean liquid damaged logic boards ?

There's a whole set of advice... soft to medium brushes, dielectric contact cleaner, 99% alcohol... let it dry well (low humidity - 72 hrs)... look for a (i) power on symbol near the contacts or it may say prbn... bridging between contact #5 & #6 on the top case ribbon connector may work.
