Intermittent humidity sensor problem on Zanussi ZDE47100?

I have a Zanussi ZDE47100 sensor dryer, about 4-5 years old and for some time the sensor only seems to work intermittently (i.e. the dryer carries on drying well after the clothes are fully dry). There doesn't seem to be any clear pattern to the behaviour but I would guess it happens on 30-40% of loads. Any ideas?
