Hello Mrokmeezur,


By "not click" I'm assuming you're talking about the Trackpads ability to actually click items on the screen and no the haptic feedback that follows. Unfortunately, there is little we can do on a community forum to help with hardware issues.


I would suggest force restarting the device - Shut down or restart your Mac - Apple Support.

Important: You can force a shutdown if necessary—for example, if your Mac becomes unresponsive—by pressing and holding the power button until your Mac shuts down. You may lose unsaved changes in open documents.


If this does not fix the issue it's possible the trackpad is broken or has something underneath preventing it from clicking. It is advised to schedule a Genius Bar appointment to have this further looked at - Genius Bar Reservation and Apple Support Options - Apple
