LG G5 fingerprint sensor doesn't work properly

I bought my phone about 2 years ago. It was fine but a couple of days ago the fingerprint sensor stopped working properly. Some of the time it is OK, but other times when I put my finger on it it does nothing. It used to give a short vibration and unlock my phone. Now nothing happens. If I press the button for a couple of seconds then the screen lights up and displays the swipe code. And then if I put my finger on the sensor again it works.
I've looked on the forums and on Google, and I haven't found any solution to this problem.
Does anyone have an idea what I can do? Is the phone finished?
