Can't restore/revive MacBook Pro 16 inch using Apple Configurator

My MacBook Pro 16 inch (running Ventura) M2 Pro stuck in restore screen. I have tried to revive/restore using iMac and another MacBook Pro with different Apple cables, still no success.

This assumes that the host Mac showed "DFU" on the Apple Configurator window prior to initiating a Revive or Restore.


Make sure to disconnect all external devices from both Macs in case those other devices are interfering.


If you have tried this a couple of times and it has failed, then it usually indicates a hardware issue with the Logic Board. You will need to have Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider examine the laptop to confirm & provide you with a repair estimate.
