Logic board has dicloleration (reddish) on the underside of the Intel chip
Here's what I'm talking about 2417 I-7 core to duo
Charger connects light on and no start up, no power, only blinking battery indicator lights......
Is this a overheated logic board????
Thanks for the info everyone!!!
Is this a good question?
@talmadge , Talmadge Dowse, Smell the chip/board, if it smell burnt/weird it is probably bad.

No burned smell, someone didn't exactly know how to take apart the battery connector was half ripped up and the track pad was not in level etc....It was part of a donation from a friend that owned a hauling clean up service

Its probably going to need a new board

@talmadge as @lpfaff1 is suggesting, it sounds like someone has reflowed the chip, so it was likely experiencing the common GPU issues on the 15" 2011 models.
Just replace it with a 2012 board to be honest, no point wasting any time trying to fix this one.
