Power Being Received No Boot Macbook Pro 15 Unibody 2 53 Ghz Mid 2009

Chosen Solution

I picked up this old macbook to try and repair. The power button does not work, but I am able to start the motherboard by shorting the pin on the keyboard connector. The fan spins up, and the charger LED is green. The battery is removed. beyond the fan I have no signs of life, no logo or keyboard lightup, and completely black screen with no lights. Looking for any suggestions to get this going, thanks.
