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

Why is my low coolant coming on my 2002 Ford Taurus?

There is a coolant level sensor in the bottom of the coolant tank. If the tank has enough coolant, then the sensor is bad. You can buy a new tank for about $50 (Rockauto.com or Autozone) and replace it in an hour or so. Or just disconnect the cable from the sensor and check your coolant level on a regular basis.
