Found Wife's 13" MBP one night with the case swollen, opened screen and trackpad bulged out. Immediately thought battery had died and swelled. Sure enough that was the case. However after removing battery and plugging in, it worked fine. Ordered a new battery, put it in and it seemed to be working fine and charging. Few days go by....
Now the laptop won't start, no battery indicator, nor green light on magsafe. Searched around, found some info on "one-wire circuit" and started checking the logic board.
I don't see any damage, maybe a few spots that have a reddish/brown discolored on some of the gold pads. Maybe light corrosion from possible gas leaked from damaged battery.
Logic board is a 820-2936B and I'm getting no power on: PPBUS_G3H or PP3V42_G3H. I'll double check U6990, but I had voltages of 16.5 input, 14.5 input with resistor and 3.8 V on FB IIRC.
