There are two temperature sensors. One is the sending unit for your guage and the other is for the PCM (Powertrain Control Module Or Better Known as The computer).

They are both Brass colored sensors with a wire plug on top and they screw into your engine. They are mounted on the engine right behind the thermostat.

Remove you air intake duct and follow the radiator hose from you radiator to the top of the engine (thermostat). look on the engine side of the thermostat and you will see both sensors (one on either side of the thermostat. I don't know which is which. I changed both at the same time I changed my thermostat
