Hall Effect Sensor in CS5000 TQ Distributor

[Peter Berrevoets]

It can be taken apart and rebuilt. Audi does not sell the part and you must
find a replacement for the pin holding the gear onto the shaft. Not hard to
do - take the old hall sensor to a bosch dealer and he can sell you a
replacement. If you need the part number, I will try to dig it up in the
morning. Mine might be different from yours so it is probably better to
disassemble unit and take part in.

Let me know.
