Macbook Pro screen goes black and flashes pink and reboots

Hi guys


I have a mac book pro 13inch M1.

Currently experiencing weird behaviour where the macbook screen will go black, flash pink and then it will reboot.

Please see log file below


Can anyone make sense of what would the issue be ?



Thanks

I would think that's a video card issue?

disconnect any 3rd party devices and reset the pram

reset the SMC from the instructions in that article.

is the Mac under warranty still?

Since the M1 has no SMC or NVRAM the equivalent is shut down, close the lid 30 secs+

and reboot into SafeBoot Mode to clear system cache:

Here's a guide that has some information about that: https://apple.co/3fl2RBw, if that doesn't solve it, the issue might be on your MacBook's graphics card. You can perform a Hardware Test to check your Graphics Card, by following these instructions: https://apple.co/3yAu3Up.
