If the sensor is stripped you will have to replace it.

If the fitting or hole it threads into is stripped it is likely you can make oversize threads and use a fitting called a bushing to repair it.

Mind you I got desperate one night and epoxied one in.

Its still working but if I ever have to change it I am toast.
