I have a m2 macbook pro. Today the touchbar stopped working. There are no lights and it doesn't respond to touch. I have tried the commands in terminal, and have tried to force quit it in the activity monitor. How can i fix this?
I have also reset my macbook, so i don't think it is my settings.

M2 SoC - SMC reset equivalent is Shut down, close the lid 30 secs+ , reboot as normal
no resolve—Try a SafeBoot Use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support will sort many anomalies.
login and test, reboot as normal and compare your results.
you can try revive or restore Mac firmware

If no resolve I would suspect hardware issue—
