CLEAR BOARD SENSOR message- I know you'll say "get a new one" but not an option

I am now having this issue. I am going to cut the clear cover the covers the LED. Any thoughts?

I wouldnt get rid of the clear cover.
Dust would build up fast, and the blowing/brushing/sweeping it clear all the time is gonna break something eventually- plus the lightpipe would get clogged.
