TouchBar not showing!

After small water damage my TouchBar completely disappeared. The first day I restarted it and the TouchBar showed up and then disappeared again. I tried typing in Terminal. I did the SMC and NVRAM reset and nothing worked. I also did the Apple Diagnostics and it didn't find a problem. I also noticed that in Settings/Keyboard there are no TouchBar settings.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.2

Liquid and computers do not mix. Typically as corrosion continues, it gets worse not better.


If you have AppleCare+ it will cover a large portion of accidental damage.
