It is located at the bottom drivers side of the radiator. It is a round sensor with large hex head that screws into the radiator. Follow the wires from the cooling fans to the sensor.

There is no other switch above it and it is a simple clip that slides to the side and allows the switch to be pulled out. I changed mine and the gauge in the cockpit worked and the fans came on. Good luck.
