Water Damage in MacBook Pro 13" 2.5Ghz

I have spilt tea on my "Water Damage in MacBook Pro 13" 2.5Ghz"

It no longer powers on. The HDD is fine and I'm pretty sure the RAM is ok. How much can I buy a replacement main board for?

Thanks

JP

What are the last three digits of your serial number? this will allow us to identify your board. what have you tried so far to fix it? Have you removed the power from the board? Have you cleaned it with 90%+ isopropyl alcohol? How much corrosion does the board show? There may be ways to fix it, but you will need to provide more information.

Also check all the connectors and clean those to make sure there is no corrosion on those.
