Hello all, I'm diagnosing a Switch Lite for my friend and found liquid damage that corroded the capacitors around the BQ24193 chip. I'm not 100% sure if the chip is actually bad yet, but I did find a shorted capacitor (image with red arrow). The short is still present with the BQ24193 chip removed and I unfortunately also found that the corrosion took the lives of a few capacitor pads as well as half of one of the chip's.
What do you think? Is there any chance at repairing these pads? Also, I'm not sure where to check next since the short is still present for the capacitor when the chip was removed.
