I was using 2 monitors for a few months and out of nowhere my second monitor didnt work anymore. Then i found out that it didnt work because the cable is a bit dead but i managed to get it work again but now it doesnt show anything just black.Is there anything that i can do?

It was working.
Then it broke.
You discovered it was probably the cable, and it kind of worked again.
Now, it does not work again.

Have you replaced the faulty cable?
