I wonder if the voltage being put out by your sensor is high or low? If it's high, you could probably "fool" the system by inserting a dropping resistor in the output circuit. To calculate the correct resistance, you'd need to know the current voltage, the amperage and the "trigger" voltage that sets the code. You would not want to use any higher resistance than necessary.

Of course, if the voltage is low, this approach would not work.
