I have a 1998 Sunfire and am getting my coolant sensor replaced today. I am told by the dealer that it is located in the housing of the plastic reserve bottle. Basically I am told you have to replace the entire bottle. Hope that helps?

I just unplugged mine it was a lot cheaper

If it is a temperature sensor, it is usually located on the top of the engine near the thermostat. If it is a "low coolant sensor", then it is located in the radiator (it will be the only item in the radiator that has a electric wire going to it) Either way, you would drain the coolant enough to be below the sensor, and then remove it and replace it with a new one. They are usually under $10-$20
