The service manager had a brainwave - pulled back the boot trim to get to the roof computer, pulled the connector and arrrrragh - all green corrosion from presumably moisture ingress. Throughly cleaned the connectors and bingo - all worked fine again. He taped the connector joint to make sure all stayed dry. As I said, that was 5 years ago and no trouble since.
So, you might want to take a look there. He told me that connector issues are not uncommon and can lead to all sorts of sensor errors.
