PT100 sensor wire coming loose in plug

I recently installed the PT100 sensor and amp board in my MK3S. Worked great for about a week, then I had a failed print where I noticed the hot end displayed temp at 1100. Playing with the connector I could get it to change wildly but no combination of zip ties and wire placement could get a solid connection. I cut out the molex and soldered in an XT30. It's working ok for now with temp swings of 2-3 deg however I don't think it will last. Reviews on Amazon show people having the same issue. One reviewer suggested adding internal adhesive heat shrink. Anyone else have this issue and find a solution?
