[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1583584, member: 56379"] What I'm suggesting is...the power button is fine...and the reason that the computer will not turn on is damage to the logic board. So there is no reason to "short" anything. The power button is very simplistic...and rarely gets damaged in a liquid spill. If you REALLY want to try what you suggest. Just open up the computer...trace where the power button plugs into the logic board...then short the pins. But...if you cause additional damage...it's on you. More than likely...the liquid spill damaged the logic board. If this is the case...start looking for a new computer...since it's usually not cost-effective to replace the logic board. Hopefully I'm wrong...but the statistics are with me. Good luck,:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
