Don’t worry, because this is an easy fix! The garage door opener will become disabled if a couple of consecutive commands sent to the garage door opener fail to open/close the overhead door.

Use the wall unit inside of the garage to manually to open/close the garage door. Close out of the Guardian app and then relaunch it. The garage door should read the correct status now.
