No backlighting of

I have no backlighting anymore on my 13' MacBook Pro - especially the Touch Bar! The keys isn't bad, but where is the adjustment for lightening the Touch Bar?

Brightness Touch Bar How do I adjust the backlight of the Touch Bar only? I can't adjust the brightness of the Touch Bar manually. I can use the screen, I can use the keyboard. And the Touch Bar only adjusts automatically. At night it is not visible behind the bright keyboard. This is a big problem for me. MacBook Pro 13 M1

Well I remembered to start in safe mode. Did that everything looked fine then, so restarted and everything is still fine. Now I have no idea what worked. I had first tried just restarting and nothing changed. So gremlins, I guess. Sorry to have bothered everyone.
