Answerthe sensor is located about 4 inches down inside of the radiator....probably need to replace radiator.

Wrong.. that is the level sensor, and it can be replaced by itself by removing the clip around the sensor and pulled out, however it will leak coolant if the radiator is full so be careful. the temprature sensor is on the block by the the thermostat housing. follow the upper radiator hose to the engine and your hand will hit the temp. sensor. it has electrical wires on it, disconnect them and remove the sensor with the correct wrench. replace the sensor and reinstall the electrical clip, the sensor is around 13 dollars
