I tried swapping out the backup battery on a Garmin G1000 without pulling the breaker first

Fried the PFD display for about 10 seconds until I slapped the breaker back in, and now I always pull the breaker and wait 30 seconds before touching any LRUs does anyone else have a near miss story like that with glass cockpit stuff?

Did you try reseating the connector on the PFD after it cooled down? I fried a screen once and just unplugging it and plugging it back in after a few minutes fixed it like nothing happened.
