Reported Wrong Status, now says "Close Error"

I have two garage doors, each with a separate sensor.  All working well for maybe two years until yesterday.  Now, one of them kept reporting itself as open, even when closed.  It said "closed for 22 hours", even though it had been opened and closed a few times.
I operated it with the app, and (having been closed, but mis-reporting as open), it beeped and opened the door.  I then used the app to truly close it.  It beeped and closed.  
But immediately I got a yellow triangle, a ! Close Error, and the statement "the Door cannot be controlled because of too many failed attempts.  Please operate the door locally to reset and allow unattended operation"
This is odd because the door can be controlled.  Presumably it is the sensor malfunctioning.
There has been no change in line of sight or any other reason why communication would be interrupted.
