both sensors are probably identical. you can swap one, and if it doesn't fix the problem, swap the sensor to the second location. if that still doesn't work, you might have bigger problems (ie. camshaft that's walking?)

also, do you have a multimeter? on my s2000, the sensors were just magnetic switches (contacts open or closes as it gets near metal).

if you want to manually test the sensors with a multimeter:
1) put the leads across the sensor terminals
2) put the meter in ohms mode
3) monitor continuity as you place the sensor near metal. (does continuity change as you bring the sensor near a piece of steel?)
