So here's an update, maybe it's fixed. The pressure relief valve had been sputtering, I had assumed because the water had gotten so hot, and it had been dripping on the wiring for the thermostat. I poked the valve to get it to stop dripping, then I dried off the connectors and fiddled with them a little bit -- and now it's working again.
I can't be sure that was actually the cause but, for now at least, the problem appears to be solved.
