Where is it located? It is under the rear of the vehicle almost directly under the muffler next to the charcoal canister.

Is it easy to replace? That depends! It isn't particularly difficult but it is in a confined space and does require patience some mechanical ability and a few specialized tools like 1/4 drive sockets, stubby screwdriver and box end wrenches.

The sensor is secured by two fasteners that require stubby Phillips #2 scredriver and box end wrenches or 1/4 socket drive. It is in a very confined space and will require you to twist, turn and curse getting a good shot at the securing hardware. The muffler and exhaust pipes are in the way and the repair manual says to remove them to gain better access. It can be done without removing the exhaust but it is almost certianly more difficult. Removal of the exhaust can be difficult and adds more complexity.
