MSB 3 isn't charging anymore after pouring coffee over the keyboard

Hello

My MSB 3 isn't charging anymore after accidentally pouring coffee over the keyboard.

The tablet itself is charging but nothing happens when I plug it in over the keyboard even though it recognizes that it's plugged in.

I've already cleaned all connectors with isopropanol and failed.

I even tried to charge it with just one battery (by disconecting the keyboard battery) but also no success.

The rest of the laptop works fine.

Now my question is: Would a battery replacement help? Or could it be still a different problem?

I'am happy for every advice!

Thanks in advance.

Replacing the battery usually don't help, the battery rarely fails, it's always the board.

Hello, Thank you very much.

Do you have a clue, where I could get a new board?

@vefix Sellers usually sell the whole bottom half of this model, it's easier to replace. You can ask the seller if they accept broken parts trade-in.

Do you know a seller? I had no success in finding one since two days.

@vefix My seller recommendations usually don't work here, China isn't part of the world in many ways.
