Monitor no longer powers on
The monitor no longer powers on, and does not connect or power my MBP. It sounds like this is a common issue. Has anyone else solved?
Is this a good question?

@harrisehsan don't replace anything yet until you have at least had a chance to take a look at it. Use this guide LG UltraFine 5K Teardown to get to the boards. Then post some well-focused pictures of everything with your Question. That way we can see what you see and hopefully assist you further. Adding images to an existing question - iFixit Repair Guide
I expect this to be an issue with the power supply.

@harrisehsan does the power LED still come on? What have you checked? What is the exact model number for your monitor?

@oldturkey03 No it does not. Nothing happens at all. There is no real sign it is working. But I spoke to a repair shop that said the motherboard has known issues that cause this, so it should be repairable. Model number is 27MD5KA

Replace the motherboard then
