That suggest that the cable that link the home button to the CPU is disconnected or broken. If it's disconnect, you can carefully reconnect that cable back and Touch ID will work again just fine. But if it's broken, there is nothing you can do to repair it, not even Apple other than changing the phone to another one altogether because that cable is a uniq link with serial number between the CPU and the home button.
Hope this help you sort out your issue.
