My monitor goes for 3 seconds black, every 1 minute
First thing, try to connect the monitor to another CPU and see if its gonna work. If it doesn't, then this might be a capacitor failure. One of the capacitors in your monitor that are responsible for holding up power for proper display is faulty. A faulty capacitor is either bulged(with a hump head) or burst. This causes the monitor to go off a few seconds after you switch it on because the capacitors can no longer hold power long enough for your display. One way to work this around is to take your monitor to a Computer Technician to open it up and probably replace the faulty capacitors
LG L1718S monitor comes on
This a power failure normally caused by a capacitor failure. Capacitors in this case might be leaking, barged (instead of a flat head, the capacitor has a barged top). When you switch on the monotr, the capacitors are supposed to hold the power enough for the proper display on the monitor. In your case the capacitor(s) are malfunctioned.That is why they can not hold power for more than 5 secondsSolution:Get a sharp and flat tool and open the monitor (starting from the bottom) working your way round to the top. You will notice finger-like clips that hold the covers together. Once you have opened it, check on the electronic board where you connect the power cable. Notice any barged-head capacitor, or leaking capacitor(s). If you find any, they have to be replaced. Get a Technician to do this for you if you can not.

That means the monitor has a problem with the Capacitors. Capacitors inside your monitor can no longer hold up power long enough for your display. This is so because the capacitors might have been blown. This makes the monitor to go on for about 2 to 3 seconds then it goes off.
The solution is to change the capacitors from the board (the part that you connect he power cable). This must be done by a Computer Technician who will safely carry out the procedure. Open up the monitor, using a flat blade and try to separate the cover with the LCD, starting from the bottom, working your way through around. Before you do anything, check for any burged or any with a black smoked colour capacitors...If you find any, then it has to be replaced
I cannot see a button
It looks like you didn't notice the buttons, there should be three buttons on the right pane of the monitor (vertical and when you look at the monitor, they are on the right-hand side), or at the right side panel, which isn't visible from the front, you have to look at them from the right side. Refer the screenshots below (
buttons are highlighted):
