"Failed Unable to complete Touch ID setup" error on iPad

Still getting a “ Failed Unable to complete Touch ID setup. Please go back and try again.” To change my Touch ID & Passcode. Need help to fit this problem so I can in my Touch ID again, because when I would use Touch ID it would not work. I did delete all of the old Touch ID with any of the fingerprint that was saved in Touch ID.

Touch ID not working on iPhone SE with iOS 18.2.1 The description covers most of it. I know my fingerprint hasn't changed (no new cuts etc and it still works just fine on my MacBook Pro). It doesn't open my phone, it doesn't open my apps. I tried to find a way to restart it by entering a new fingerprint but I CAN'T cuz it won't let me do that until I unlock the process using my Touch ID. AAAUUUGGHHHHH! Any suggestions (hopefully short of buying a new iPhone {last resort solution})? Maggie [Re-Titled by Moderator]
