This is a common problem and a PITA to fix. Go the tech page and view the sticky. It is rather long but very informative.
Mine just quit also. I have the part and just waiting on time to replace the sensor. Good luck.

Just finished mine and yes it took me some time. I cleaned the inside of the intake, replaced the intake gaskets and the injector o-rings. Also, replaced the PCV valve and cleaned my catch can while it was apart. All is well now.. One of the things you have to be careful of is the tiny straw at the end of the intake at the firewall. Very short so I picked up some extra tubing and a connector from Advance auto and lengthened it a couple of inches. Much easier to connect. Make sure you get the Borg -Warner brass unit. I've been told these will last. We'll see though. $.02

Haven't heard of anyone having problems with the accuracy of the readings when they relocate the sensor. Sure makes it easier to change should the sensor go out again.
I have a few Word files that talk about the sensor and the relocation process. If you'd like a copy, PM me your e-mail address.
