Q: i spilt juice on my macbook air
So i spilt juice on my macbook it wasn't that much and i have spilt juice on it before but this time was different cos it actually shut off by it self but anyways i panicked and i started panicking and i shook it and then i found online that you have to leave it keyboard side down and i did that for a bit and then i turned it on and it actually turned on but then it shut down again i left it for a bit and then i turned it on again and it turned on again and i managed put my password and it started loading but it shut down again. I tried putting it on the charger sometimes the charger light comes on for a bit and then goes off but most of the time it doesn't even turn on at all. It's been 18 hrs since this happened and i was thinking about trying to set off the SMS but i don't know if it's possible that if i shake it the juice will spread. Plz help me.
MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan (10.11.3)

When liquid comes in contact with the computer, you run the risk of the liquid making its way to the logic board. Once the logic board get even a little wet, that liquid will conduct electricity and short out parts of the board as power is applied (start, restart, charging, etc)
It would make sense for you to have the MacBook evaluated at an Apple Authorized Service Provider or at an Apple Retail Store.
