aliadoeninternet, yes it is possible that you shorted out the board while doing the repair.Most likely a new board should fix this.

If the device is on during repair board damage can definitely occur. If the computer detects it and you cannot see an image the back light fuse could have been damaged or the LCD could have gone out.
