Default 2001 C0630 - Right Rear Position Sensor Error

Hi all, I have ride control option in my 01 with 117,000 miles. I'm getting a C0630 trouble code; The code description is "Right Rear Position Malfunction" and based on what I am seeing could be a faulty connection, wiring or bad sensor; I have the ride control option. My connection and wiring looks good so I'm guessing my problem is a bad sensor; I'd like to keep the ride control in place and operating but based on what I am seeing, the position sensor is discontinued. Anyone have any suggestions of other things I can check to be sure the sensor is bad? Any suggestions on any aftermarket replacements that may be available? Thanks.

Is it mounted on the body and connected to the A-arm?

Yes Smoken1, I've attached a picture below. #3 is the sensor. The GM part # appears to be 22153638. I believe we have communicated in the past; I hope you are well.

I have what you need from my 02 which is the same part #. I will just have to remove it this week end.
BTW, I will need you cut the wires and connector off your old one and return that to me

Yea, I need the connector and about 6in of the wire to wrap up. I am just plugging back into the main harness to keep it dry
