[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1713086, member: 56379"] If Apple is quoting $1200 to repair the computer…it's almost 100% certain most of this is due to needed a new logic board. Since you mentioned that the spill was around the upper left corner (near where the power cable plugs in)…it's possible that the Mag-Safe board may have been effected. The mag-safe board is much less expensive to replace (about $33.75 + shipping for a used one). [URL]http://www.powerbookmedic.com/MacBook-Pro-15-Retina-MagSafe-2-Board-Late-2013-p-47038.html[/URL] What's troubling is that you also mentioned that some of the other ports are not working. This does indicate something more serious (maybe that spill did much more damage). And this is where the whole logic board may need replacing if getting these ports working again was needed. For now you could try replacing the Mag-Safe board…and see if that helps with the charging issue. HTH, - Nick [/QUOTE]
