Take IPhone To Apple Store for repair.
Is your local service person an authorized Apple service provider?
If he is not, Apple will not touch your phone or accept it for an out of warranty replacement.
For security reasons, you can not replace the fingerprint sensor.
The entire device has to be replaced.
no authorized service provider in Bangalore.and it is out of warrenty , 😟 so surely company will not gonna help me out ... replacement of sensor with strip will surely not solve my problem ???? restore to original settings or restore back up not gonna work ? plzzzzzz guide me
This thread is quite old but anyways, there is no way you can get touch id working by yourself except if you use the original one which came with the device itself. Every touch ID is uniquely matched with the processor. Your only possible way to get it working again is to send it to apple, maybe then can reprogram the device for you. If not, like others already said, you need a new logic board.

Since the device in question was opened by an unauthorized party, Apple won't touch it under any circumstances.
Oops, forgot that detail while replying, thanks anyways 😁
