hello. the coolant sensor that controls the cooling fans on and off times is located by the thermostat housing. follow the lower hose from the radiator to the engine and the housing will be there. it will be a 2 wire sensor.

does it work with the ac on???

the sensor that controls the fans is the 2 wire sensor by the thermostat housing. that sends the pcm the info on motor temp, then the pcm grounds the relay that turns on the fans
