Hi,

My housemate spilt about 15-20ml of orange squash into his Thinkpad
1160.
The main board looks pretty dry but quite a bit must have got into the
keyboard. There is squash on the expanded ram (now removed) and in the
HDD enclosure on the bottom.

Left it to dry overnight but it wont power up. The battery charge light
comes on so am hoping it isn't totally screwed.

I am HOPING that it is just the keyboard that is knackered. Is there
anyway to bypass the on-off switch that runs through the keyboard
controller just to see if the machine powers up and is therefore worth
buying a new keyboard off of ebay?

Any other hint and tips on how to revive the machine?
Cheers
