filament sensor 'bad wiring' possible fix?

Since a bout a week or so of ownership, my filament sensor was always reported as N/A, and the self test always failed due to that stating 'bad wiring'. I quadruple checked the wiring safely with the power off. Last night I had a dream that I got it working, so I went right on ahead this morning and tried something from the dream, because sometimes my Anunnaki overlord on planet Nibiru sends me tips in my sleep.

I powered the MK3 up and then unplugged and replugged the cable on the sensor end, and a few moments later the screen showed it as ON. True story.

I'm presently printing now and I assume it is working, filament is translucent PLA even. I will report back to this thread if not. Cheers!
