I'm joining the club, I got this error about a week ago after my late 2016 Macbook Pro (Big Sur) crashed when I opened the lid.
I've been able to log once and the touch bar was working fine. After few hours, I reopened my MacBook and it was crashed again. Since then I haven't been able to log in. I did change my screen but it was like 2 years ago and I only had few crashes before that.
I tried to:
Repair
Erase everything and reinstall Sierra / Mojave / Big Sur
Disconnect the touch bar from the logic board.
None of this worked.
Today I tried to remove everything and install only Windows 10. Every startup, I got an error from Boot Camp saying that it encountered an error and need to restart to restore, but I can close and ignore this error. Everything is working fine except that my touch bar is not showing at all (no ESC or F1 / F2... buttons).
I wonder if my touch bar is dead and causing all the troubles even though it worked once before or if it's the logic board? Is there any way to know? Did someone tried to disconnect the touch bar?
