Clear CMOS that doesn't work with the battery and non-functional display

Hello, I wanted to change something in my BIOS and I tried to restart my PC, but the screen wouldn't turn on anymore. On my motherboard, there's a VGA LED on, which means the display isn't working. I tried to do a CMOS clear several times, but nothing happened. I also tried using an HDMI cable (originally DVI), but that didn't work. My motherboard is an MSI X370 SLI Plus with an RX Vega, a R3 2200G, 2x8GB RAM at 3000 MHz, a 2TB SSHD, and a Be Quiet 700 watt power supply. I don't know what to do and I think the battery is dead for the CMOS clear, but I don’t have a jumper for the CMOS clear, only a battery.

You can clear the CMOS simply by making contact on the pins of the Clear CMOS connector (usually CLR_CMOS) with a flat screwdriver, for example.

I doubt that the battery is dead.

I don't think my motherboard has that connector unless you have photos. In any case, I've looked and found nothing except for the battery that doesn't work.

I just have a question, is the connector jbat1 the one to clear the CMOS because I found it?

It's a good connector, sorry for the delayed response.
