OK, check rear sensor, NSR trailing arm. Looks the same.

Where are you, might be worth popping a code reader on it

Yes, one of mine failed. It looked fine, but a 'new' sensor sorted mine.  :y  :y

I'm sure that one of the breakers on the site would be able to sort you out. Vauxhall doubled the price after they changed their design to around £100 each  :o I'm sure Lizzie will give you an exact replacement price.
A proper code reader will tell you where your fault is.  :y
