Default TPMS - Error Code "Lxxx"

Received this code today for my front driver's side wheel/tire. Does that mean the tire pressure sensor for that wheel is dead or can it be reprogrammed? The Check Tire Sensor System warning also appeared on the DIC. I checked the tire inflation manually and it appears fine. Thinking the sensor is starting to go.

Thanks. This particular sensor has been going on and off over the last week so I will try retraining them. These are not the original sensors but the secondary sensors I installed with my CCW wheel/tire package in 2012, so they are only 4 years old.

I hate the idea of removing the tires to replace the sensor and would prefer to swap out the sensors when I replace the tires.
