Please respond to my need of a WD 2061 701292-B00 AE PCB

What do you want it for? What is original drive model and make on it makes it easier to match the PCB. Why do you think you need to change it? These boards have adaptive data in them and they require skills to move it or the right tools to do this one with.

Check the 12V TVS diode. It will probably be shorted, in which case the fix is to remove it. There may also be an open zero ohm resistor nearby. Replace this with a 2 amp picofuse or a short length of wire. If there is no other damage, the drive will work OK, but it will no longer have any overvoltage protection on the 12V rail.
Upload a detailed photo if you need help to identify the components.
Good luck.

+1 on the TVS, look for the Diode symbol, you should first identify where 12V comes into the PCB (pinouts are available online) and you will find it.
19V passing through it may well have made it a bit of a mess. Check 5V whilst there too.

Most of these pcbs dont have a TVS for protection .
