I made sure every chip was well seated but no improvement. This A500+ had a minor battery leak but I had treaed it with lemon juice and isopropyl alcohol.
Anyone has any idea what could have gone wrong? or areas to check for these kind of symptoms?

Im no expert at diagnostics, and maybe you should get Chucky's DiagROMs..
But if Id venture a guess, faulty CIA chips could probably produce black diagnostic color.
(And they are known to fail more often than most other chips in the Amiga.)
