Ask Different Asked by ijustwanttousemymac on January 2, 2022
I’ve had my 13 inch 2019 MacBook Pro for almost a year now. Over the 3 weeks or so, it has begun randomly restarting or crashing every once and a while. I haven’t changed my usage habits, or downloaded any new programs, however, I did recently start using my external hard drive again so I can have daily Time Machine backups. (I had bought it in January and used it at my office daily, but then didn’t have access to it for 3 months due to COVID restrictions.) It seems unlikely to me that that could be the cause, as I bought the hard drive from Target and it doesn’t seem suspicious.
Over the last 3 weeks or so, occasionally when I am working the screen will just go black, and the haptic feedback from 3D touch will stop, as if it ran out of battery, but it didn’t. Then, when I start it back up, I will get a Problem Report for macOS popup that says my computer restarted because of a problem. At first I assumed this was possibly related to the fact that I hadn’t updated my macOS in far too long, so I updated to Catalina, but the issue keeps happening.
I am including the error report here in the hopes someone smarter than me can help me figure out what’s wrong and how to fix it. Thank you so much for your help in advance:

Kernel panics are usually caused by hardware problems. The report you posted suggests it is a problem with a USB device, but it could be anything, really.
I suggest running Apple Hardware Diagnostics (be sure to unplug all your USB devices etc. as it says in the instructions). If it fails, call Apple about getting your MacBook repaired. If it succeeds, run it a second time just to be sure.
If no hardware problems are found, then stop using your external drive and see if the panics stop. It might be the drive, or it might be the drive's power connector, or it might be the USB cable connecting the drive, or it might be some other USB device attached (like an external keyboard), or it could be something else entirely. It's pretty much trial and error if the hardware diagnostics do not turn up anything.
