My trackpad is not physically clicking

I have a MacBook Pro 13" and for the past two days, my trackpad has not been physically clicking. I have tried restarting it numerous times and turned Force Click and haptic feedback on and off in system preferences. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.14

Trackpad Click Not Working on MacBook Air M2 After macOS Sequoia 15.5 Update Hi everyone, After updating to macOS Sequoia 15.5, the trackpad on my MacBook Air M2 (13-inch) no longer responds to physical clicks. Scrolling, cursor movement, and tap-to-click all work as expected However, the haptic click (Haptic Touch) no longer functions at all I haven’t changed any system settings, and the trackpad was working fine before the update I’ve tried restarting, booting in Safe Mode, and running Apple Diagnostics, but no issues were found Has anyone else experienced this issue? Any advice or solutions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I would try Safe Mode, then- hold the Shift key on startup. If the problem persists, it's probably a hardware issue.

Thank you so much for the suggestion. I tried this and it unfortunately did not resolve the issue.
