If you can get under the rear of the van, these can usually be individually unplugged very easily. If the cables reach, swapping the connectors with allow you to prove if the fault stays with the sensor.

If you do get under the van, make sure you tell the wife you are there!!!

Thanks,

 If I tell my wife I'm under the van she probably would start it up!!

I'm more interested in trying to find make of kit so I can replace damaged sensors, any ideas!

Sorry, can’t help with make of kit, I may be wrong but it looks an aftermarket installation.
I’ve used these guys over the years on my previous cars, very helpful so may be worth a call

Is here no form of label, logo or other markings on the dash unit that would give a clue?

Lots like that on eBay. I don't think sensors are unit specific.Mine are plug in

Thanks for replying. 

There appears to be no manufactures logo or otherwise on dash unit or sensors. I'm afraid it looks like I will have to purchase complete new kit.

Thank you also Dbvwt for your input.
