Did you check the sub wiring harness? From what I have read it's rarely a problem with the sensor itself and is usually the wiring harness. I haven't had the issue yet (knock on wood) but from what I have gathered the wiring harness sits in a valley under the intake manifold that gets subjected to some intense heat, and well.....you can see where this is going.

My advice is to check the wiring harness for the sensors.
