look near the thermostat housing ( where the top radiator hose goes back to the engine) there should be a sensor that screws in. It has a one wire lead that just goes over the top of it. unplug the wire and put a socket the sensor and unscrew. Install a new sensor in reverse order. They usuall cost no more than 20.00.
