Start by resetting the NVRAM and SMC. If that doesn't help, then you know you have a hardware issue with the display. Replacing the camera itself on these models is not easily done. You would need to fully disassemble the display assembly and do some very delicate microsoldering. The more feasible approach is to replace the display assembly, but the displays on these can be pretty expensive. Here's a link to a display. Good luck!

Is this the original display that came with the system?

You might be better off just using an external web cam when necessary as the 'repair' to fix the possibly damaged camera is a nightmare of a job when it comes to removing the screen glass and all to get to the camera part...... Have you checked inside that all the cables are in place..... MacBook Pro 13" Two Thunderbolt Ports 2020 Display Assembly Replacement

Not sure what happened. I posted an answer here and I was notified that you commented on my answer. However, my answer is nowhere to be found now.

@wenchao - It was deleted as your answer is a very different setup with the older Unibody systems.

@danj Sorry about that, but the basic troubleshooting princle shall apply: make sure it's the camera by testing another assembly before proceeding the difficult part of replacing it.

@wenchao - Apple makes testing on the there M series very difficult at the physical level. At best you have the onboard diagnostics.
Replacing is not really done, here the full display assembly is swapped out as the lid assembly is not easily opened and replacing the camera is just not done.the camera is serialize to the system.

@danj "the camera is serialize to the system" does it mean the replacement camera wouldn't work?
I knew that a few iPhone componenets were binded to the system such as touch ID, which many people complained about. What good does it do for Apple?
