You need to know the resistance, then you can simply pop into maplins etc and buy one, even if you can't get the exact one the nearest resistance would usually be ok.
This can always be mounted remotely(outside the ecu) if needed.

Is it a separate part? If so is the Sierra DOHC one the same? I have a couple of dead ones here.

Sounds the same as a Sierra but sadly the Sierra one has only two terminals.
