Korg Electribe ER-1 with error iPL?

When the power button is pressed it turns on and displays "ipl" or maybe "1pl" on the display.

I took it apart and everything looks OK inside, no obvious liquid damage or loose connectors. The other thing is that if the solo key is held down when the power button is pressed it seems to boot normally with "electribe" scrolling across the display three times, then it displays "A01". Many of the buttons however do not work after it boots normally(such as the play button). All of the knobs appear to work fine.

I also tried factory resetting it by holding the solo and write buttons down when powering up, but I think some of the buttons don't work. I've never been able to get it to get to the confirmation where you have to press the play button to confirm factory reset.

Got this unit super cheap so it's not surprising it has a random error. Anyone familiar with this particular error?
