The speed sensor on my Cerbera appears to be broken. The speedo only works intermittently, it’s off more than it’s on. I backed it off, cleaned it and also cleaned the toothed wheel before setting it to 0.1mm but it didn’t fix it. I then set the sensor as close to the wheel as I could without it actually touching the toothed wheel but this didn’t work either. So I’m assuming it’s the sensor but I’m a bit reluctant to cough up £150 for a new one from TVR, is there another part available elsewhere?
Does anyone know the thread size?

There is a guy on the Cerbera forum who does a quality alternative , I know have been running one for years and it runs a sensible 1mm air gap , he use to advertise in the TVR parts section
