Mini-Display Port for HDMI/VGA

Currently, the HDMI option still does not work per my earlier mention, it goes straight to Power Saving mode despite all your suggestions in the reference post, VGA works without issue.
This out of warranty S2340L built on May 5, 2015 was never tested on Apple. I am confused by this line, "Mini-Display Port for HDMI/VGA". Are you saying that the MacBook Pro has all three video out ports, mDP/HDMI/VGA? Or are you using some form of mDP to HDMI converter to HDMI to HDMI cable to HDMI in port in on the S2340L?
Hi, the port is for adaptors, I have one for VGA and one for HDMI, which then connects to the cable and then the monitor. It worked fine since 2016 and then late last year when I made contact, the HDMI connection was lost out of the blue.

Hello, I am following up as to whether there is a solution that that may help me regain access to the HDMI function of my monitor?

For this 4 year old out of warranty monitor, you should post the MacBook Pro connecting issue on the Apple Forum.
