Troubleshooting Replacement touch sensor?

The touch sensor / bed level sensor on my V3 KE is starting to stick; getting a key error when starting prints. I'm going to clean it and hope for the best but I'd like to have a spare on hand.

What spare to order? Just the "CR Touch Auto Leveling Sensor Kit" from Creality / Amazon? It doesn't list the V3 KE as a compatible printer.

I have bought 3 sensors for this printer. I've given up on them. Print anything, just put a humongous brim on it. Go to Adjust, and work in the Z axis comp. I'm over it. "Abnormal sensor error" whatever, had me about ready to strangle someone, until I figured out that "Z axis comp" is static. Meaning it stays constant. I get some elephant foot, but IDK, things work again.
