Porsche 944 owners apparently have a similar problem with a pot based sensor, but they have it worse, as Porsche has quit selling a replacement part! Many of those people apparently extend the pot swingarm so that the contact element crosses a slightly different section of the resistance element, which is presumably intact.

Looking at your pictures JimF, it looks like the contact element crosses the entire width of the two strips of resistance element. So that might not be a way to go.
