Property [$enabled] not found on component (Livewire issue)

I'm having trouble getting a checkbox working in Livewire. Example code:

Component class

public Checkbox extends Component {
    public $enabled = false;
    
    public function render()
    {
        $this->example = (bool) auth()->user()->example;

        return view('components.en-checkbox');
    }
}

Parent view (update-profile-information-form.blade.php)

    <div class="col-span-6 sm:col-span-4">
        <x-en-checkbox id="enabled" wire:model.defer="state.enabled" />
        <x-jet-label for="enabled" value="{{ __('Enable meee') }}" />
        <x-jet-input-error for="enabled" class="mt-2" />
    </div>

Component view

<input wire:model="enabled" type="checkbox" {{ $enabled ? 'checked' : '' }} {!! $attributes->merge(['class' => '']) !!}>

The view loads as expected and I can output the default $enabled value but when I tick the checkbox an error modal appears which reads: Property [$example] not found on component: [laravel.jetstream.http.livewire.update-profile-information-form]

From the error it looks like it's looking at the parent Component for the public property, rather than the nested Component. Any idea why this might be?

Fixed - should've set the wire:model attribute to state.enabled.

Hope this helps someone in future!

@korovacow It happened to me too "Property [$id] not found on component: [profile.update-profile-information-form]" and I solved it with:

php artisan view:clear
