I spilled a whisky drink on mine and thought I was screwed. It only fried the circuit board for the battery though. It would only turn on when plugged in. I bought a new one from iFixit along with some tools. I was able to slowly remove the battery (it's glued onto the case) and install a brand new one. Cleaned up the inside and keys with isopropyl alcohol. Runs like a champ now

As long as the logic board didn't get fried you should be ok. Let it dry for a few days and see if it'll turn on.

How could anyone be so stupid to have a drink anywhere near an open laptop?
