LED Panel supplied with higher voltage than specified

[kuinchi]

I have some problem with my project. I have an AUO LCD Panel for my project and I accidentally supplied it with a higher voltage around 20Vdc (normally should be 12Vdc) but just around 3-5 seconds when I noticed the error and turned it off immediately. After supplying it with the right voltage, the LED backlight would not work anymore. This must be due to the overvoltage.
Is there a way to save the LED panel or is it good as dead? I really want to save the panel for my project.

Thanks in advance for the replies and suggestions.

The LED is likely dead. 🙁

The LCD isn't dead. I actually looked at the LED backlight driver and saw that the fuse was burnt. I took it out and shorted the traces directly since i don't have a replacement fuse for the mean time and it worked!!!

You got lucky! I am glad it was fused.
