Touch ID on Mac mini M2 Pro with Ventura 13.2.1

Hi

I opened a case with Apple: to cut it short, it seems its a hardware issue, they asked me to bring it to an Apple Service Provider\Apple Store for further investigation.

In details:

1. The 1st advisor went with all questions via Chat, and at the end, s\he recommended to schedule a call with an advisor..
2. The 2nd advisor were pretty helpful, he checked the logs, and asked me create a new partition with a new MacOS on it -without even setting the profile-, in order to see if the problem still exist, and collect fresh logs from untouched version of the OS, which I did and found the problem still exist, he confirmed that it is not Keyboard issue, either a software or hardware issue.
3. Since MacOS takes time to be installed, I had a 3rd advisor checking the logs, which, according to her, had been shared with a senior advisor, who at the end says it seems a hardware issue, and recommended to take for further investigation by an Authorized Service Provider.

Now, from where I live, I don't know how long will it take to get it replaced, and whether will I keep the device until I get the replacement or not.
