My July 2019 MacBook Touch Bar has started to flash when the MacBook is left for a few minutes.
Pressing any key stops it flashing.
Running OS Monterey
It flashes like a strobe light
Any ideas? Answers to this - can the Touch Bar be disabled? I don't use it.
Thanks
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 12.0

On a Intel Mac you can try both
—resetting the SMC https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295
— resetting NVRAM/PRAM http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379
(get at least two-three rounds of the chimes when holding the NRAM Reset)
If no resolve this typically indicates a hardware issue
Call Customer Support (800) MY–APPLE (800–692–7753)
or on line https://getsupport.apple.com/
or call AppleCare Support at 1-800-APLCARE (800-275-2273)
