Sudo su "Sorry try again" - 3 incorrect password

Hi, I’m having trouble with the sudo command.

For a few days now, when executing a sudo command (with various variations) I get the message:

Sorry, try again.
Sorry, try again.
sudo: 3 incorrect password attempts
zsh: exit 1 sudo su

I tried the command: faillock --user user but the table is empty. I use the workstation as a regular user.

How can I fix this problem?

For sudo password:

use sudo NOT su
