liquid spill.
disassemble and cleaned thoroughly with 99% alcohol.
no power. any chance at all that is not the logic board?
if the dc-in board was fried, would the machine power on?
i do have a previous gen 2.26Ghz machine. does it use the same dc-in board?
if it is the logic board, any sources for component level repair?

I'd remove the logicboard, soak it in 99% alcohol, dry it after a few hours in the oven (wrap in alumium foil and use something around 100 degree centigrade). After that have good look with a magnifier for any residant stains and clean the manually. Assemble and keep your fingers crossed.
I rescued a few liquid victims that way.

If the DC-in board was fried then as long as the battery had power it'd boot up, which is a likely possibility, batteries are some of the first things to go after a liquid spill, the first thing you should do when you spill is yank the battery out- unfortunately the new MacBooks require a little more time than the turn of a quarter :(.
So if you can test with another battery that'd be a good idea, otherwise I'm sorry to say it's the logic board, which 2/5 times is the problem after a liquid spill.

turn of a quarter would have been much quicker than going out to find a tri-wing!
will try another battery and post again. your reply is greatly appreciated. :)
Tried good (charged) battery: does chime. no video, fan runs, did not hear the hard drive trying to load os. Connected external monitor using dongle: no go. anyone have clues? other diagnostic ideas? tia
Same problem. 1 glass of red wine = no power. were you able to get yours going?
