System got wet (Rain)

I've replaced the SSD and the Mag DC inboard... new thermal paste.... soaked logic board in alcohol and still nothing.

Haven't done the hard resets yet that this. But any help would be appreciated!

My problem started from a small drizzle while I was working on it outside

Small amount of drizzle on macbook pro left unchecked and used for a few days. Macbook worked but then screen had a few rain spots. Then the battery stopped chargin (dont hold me to that part it was a while ago it might've charged lol). But Then it wouldnt turn on at all. I saw in previous posts that people were able to use their macbooks with damaged batteries without it charging their battery (like a desktop, basically battery override I suppose), but if their battery power got to 0 would they even be able to use their macbook in such a state? Just trying to diagnose if its the battery or the logic board. If it won't start without the battery id assume its not the batter thats the issue

Anyway I really dont know where to look on this one. But to make a long story shorter I cleaned my logic board with 93% alcohol and cotton swabs...Upgraded ssd... Replaced mag dc inboard cuz figured might be a cheap fix. Thermal pasted with ?? grizzly thermonaut... similar to artic silver??? But still... no love... did smc reset (options control power for four seconds).... no love.. i guess the next thing i will do is 12-20 hour soak the logic board in the 93% alcohol if thats what you guys would recommend even though it looked pretty clean. Other than doing that and/or replacing the battery pack idk what else to do besides bring it to a professsional. Cant describe how Crazy this headache has been over just a couple drops of drizzle. Smh.

So.. to repeat. Magboard lights green first second... per usual... then goes orange and stays orange indefinitely. screen had a few white rain marks, not many. was used for short period after rain. I know smh. now Doesnt start... smc reset won't fix it. will not run without battery either. mag dc replaced. logic board currently in alcohol soak for 12 hours. Should I throw the IO board in alcohol as well? What could be causing the orange light and non start.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

How about filling in the details a bit more on what your systems are.
