Pro Proprex HS1800 - Air sensor replacement

Everynow and then. Have to stick the hoover onto the inlet to get the propex working.
This method works ok. Then a few day later it doesn't fire up again.
I emailed propex and got a reply. They state it's the air sensor & they can supply a new sensor all mounted on a board for fitment.
Is this a difficult job? I have seen 1 video. Though bloke had trouble in having troubler to change the wiring around. it didn' look just unscrew and replace?

Propex have said I can send the unit to them and they will fit it. Though if I disconnect the propex. I'll need someone to sign of the re-install again (on safe side).

Not sure just to get the part and get someone to fit it and gas the propex a gas test at the same time?

Refitting the Propex is fairly plug and play. Propex's tech guy really knows his stuff although in this instance I'd just go ahead and order and replace the air sensor yourself (Propex will assist via the phone I'm sure if you're stuck). The advantage is that other than isolating the gas line, you shouldn't have to disconnect gas feed and all will be well. If you send it to Propex expect around £150 in service costs plus the hassle of removing/refitting. Go ahead and purchase the board.
