When I recently disassembled my 2020 macbook pro to re-paste it there was also paste from the factory application on the second, smaller integrated heat spreader (IHS) next to the main IHS on the die. I'd recommend pasting that as well with non-conductive thermal paste. Using a conductive paste could cause a short if some of it overflows the IHS and contacts the die below.

When I recently disassembled my 2020 macbook pro to re-paste it there was also paste from the factory application on the second, smaller integrated heat spreader (IHS) next to the main IHS on the die. I'd recommend pasting that as well with non-conductive thermal paste. Using a conductive paste could cause a short if some of it overflows the IHS and contacts or bridges traces on the die below.
Since there's no thermal paste transferring heat away from the second IHS to the heat sink, the system could be detecting a spike in heat above the maximum operating temperature (TJMax) for that chip once you power it on and the system is protecting itself from thermal damage.
If that doesn't remedy your issue, some sort of hardware damage or failure to plug in a ribbon cable could be the cause.
