Good morning,


The sensor is on the back drivers side of the motor. It is not an easy replacement as it is very tight back there.

I attached a picture of the location for you to view. I also attached a connector for you to view. It has the color of the wires for the sensor. You will need a 3/4 or 7/8 socket or wrench to remove the sensor.
