Hi Sam, sorry to hear this has happened.
Typically when this has occurred it is a fault within the radio, and usually requires replacement of the radio.

There are a few things you can try...
1. Disconnect the 12V battery for a minimum of 10 minutes, reconnect, and restart the vehicle
2. If No. 1 doesn't work, then disconnect the battery again, remove the micro SD card from the slot in front the shifter, reconnect the battery, and restart the vehicle. Hopefully the screen comes on, and when it's done booting up, then insert the micro SD card.

Unfortunately once the screen is blank there is no way to pair the phone.

Good luck.
