Sorry to hear about your trouble, and congrats on getting the first portion fixed! With the help of this forum, chafed wires on the 370Z convertible top wiring will soon be more easily recognized and fixed without spending a fortune on it...

The dealer has obviously hooked up the computer to the car, and found the intermittent reading that way. Question is, is it really the sensor that is bad?
Let's make sure first that the wires from the controller to the sensor are intact, that the sensor is firmly clipped into the cylinder, and that the cylinder is extending all the way (meaning, the storage cover is opening all the way).

qubickz, could you please confirm the above?
