Repair was easy and quick. I generally like to use original retailer for repair parts. However, this time it took Sears FOREVER to find and ship item. After 1 1/2 weeks I decided to look on (Another website) and they had the part for 1/3 the price AND free shipping.

Took about 45 minutes to get everything apart changed and put back together. The sensor was clearly OE quality and has been working wonderfully for about a month now
