Default Fuel pressure sensor

I have a 2001 Mercedes c320 and I need to know the following. On top of the fuel pump there is a pressure sensor. Does this sensor detatch or would I need to replace the entire fuel pump?

the whole unit will need to be replaced i believe. there are no detachable parts on the fuel pumps. there is a fuel pressure regulator built into the fuel filter.

Default codes

Hey thanks. Can you help me with some codes? P201C, P0450, and P2010. Also, my BAS indicator light came on the same time my cruise control stopped workng. Do you think it may be a switch under the brake pedal?
