touchbar lights burn out??

the backlights on my macbook pro touch bar were flickering for a couple weeks on the right side by the volume controls. Now, it's black. Do the lightbulbs burn out behind the touch bar after a few years??

Hi there croppingfool,


Thanks for joining us in Apple Support Communities! We understand the Touch Bar isn't working on your MacBook Pro. We're glad you're here, and we can help.


Have you tried restarting your Mac to see if that helps? If needed, learn more about restarting here:


Log out, sleep, wake, restart, or shut down your Mac


If the issue persists after a restart, try resetting the SMC and NVRAM on your MacBook Pro to see if that makes a difference:

Let us know how it goes.


Take care.
