Sensor problem, how many wires.

Make sure you properly insulate them with tape again though to avoid bad readings and check it's calibration with something else to make sure it's still good.

You could solder a new jack on if you have a soldering iron? If not wont it be easier to buy a new sensor or claim on the warrenty?

I reported the fault to the ebay seller and the situation I was in still useing the dodgy one and they sent a replacement the next day without me returning the old one which was great service, said the did not need the dodgy one back . This is the one I am trying to repair, I have already had a replacement so this one is for free if I can repair it.
