Before you go off & spend your hard earned, lever off the metal clip holding the expansion bottle to the inner wing, push the bottle backabout 1 inch until it is free. Carefully lift it & check that the sensor plug is still tightly fitted. If it is, i've just wasted your time, if it isn't you've just saved some dosh! Simples  ;D ;) :y
