Thanks Pat, Hi Dan,

The part is an Omron E2E2-X5CI 05702 proximity sensor. You should be able to purchase it from a decent industrial electric supply. If you can't buy locally, I can send you one.

The colour code goes like this:

Sensor Brown > Car Green
Sensor Blue > Car Black
Sensor Black > Car Grey

There is no ground in this circuit, so do't let the black wires fool you. The ground is through the mounting bracket and sensor housing. It comes with full instructions. Hope that helps.

Also I have some tips regarding the CVs however since I'm a crumy typer and to keep it short, what do think led to the joint letting go?

Cheers
