Was there anything blocking the light sensor?
Go into diagnostics in settings and check the sensors

As suspected.
Either the clearing for the light sensor isn't present, or the sensor is damaged.
Turn off auto brightness and adjust.

where/how can I clean lighting sensor?

If it's showing zero, it's not a cleaning it needs.
It's either being blocked by the print on the glass, or it is broken.
A dirty ambient sensor will still show >5 lumens
