energy saver gone rogue

I have a MacBook Pro, Catalina. I have set the energy saver to sleep after 15 minutes but it shuts the screen down if I am not on the keyboard after just a couple minutes. I can't seem to adjust. I am not touching a hotspot, I don't have a magnet touching it...anyone know what I can do?

MacBook Pro 15", macOS 10.15

Try resetting NVRAM/PRAM http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379

and

Try resetting the SMC https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295
