Good afternoon,

I attached a picture and the procedure for you below.

Roy

The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor on the 3.6L engine is installed into a water jacket at rear of the cylinder head on the left side of the engine.

WARNING:
Hot, pressurized coolant can cause injury by scalding. Cooling system must be partially drained before removing the coolant temperature sensor.

NOTE:
Do not waste reusable coolant. If solution is clean, drain coolant into a clean container for reuse.

1. Partially drain the cooling system. See: Cooling System > Procedures

2. Disconnect the electrical connector from the sensor.

3. Remove the sensor from the cylinder head.
