LG Monitor won't turn on - LG 34UM95 / 31MU97 FIX

A common issue that these LG monitor boards face is power outage management. The board in the video has suffered a sudden loss of power, such as a power outage or being unplugged without being turned off first, and refuses to spring on again.

The culprit to this problem is the IC205 EEPROM. It's stuck in a bad state and needs some help from us to reset itself in order to allow power back onto the board.

In this video I will outline how you can reset the EEPROM with just a multi-meter and fix your LG motherboard (LG 34um95p, 31MU97) in under 30 minutes and for less than $30.
