Acer Aspire X1420g Spill Damage.

I have had my Acer Aspire x1420g for about 5 years. I had spilled juice on it by accident recently. I cleaned it and let it dry. It powers on. I can hear the fan, but the blue light isn't turning on and the monitor will not display. I'd like to replace the parts that are broken, but I'm not sure what it could be. Just wanted some answers and didn't know where else to look.

What you are to do is to disassemble it and thoroughly clean the mobo with an electronic cleaner like methylated spirit. Then connect the monitor pin only onto the board - connect the AC adapter and power it up and observe (use one RAM stick at a time if you have more than one). A service manual to assist you with much here.
