This engine does not have nor use a engine coolant temp sensor. It uses a cylinder head temp sensor. It is mounted under the intake which has to be removed to gain access to the sensor. It is on the drivers side head next to the intake ports
cylinder head temp sensor measures the temp of the cylinder head metal itself and the coolant sensor measures the temp of the coolant only. the coolant sensor is mounted in the coolant and the head sensor is mounted only in the metal of the head and not into anything else. check with a dealer.
The coolant temperature is read off of the (CHT) cylinder head temperature sensor. It is located on the inside on the passenger side (right) cylinder head and is connected to the harness through Ford connector C107. The Ford basic part# is 6G004. It's connected by WH/VT and BR/WH wires to pins 40 and 17 of the vehicles PCM (computer). Keep in mind that if the coolant level is low, if there is air in the system, or if there is a wiring concern, you could have concerns with this sensors reading. Good luck.
It is on the Driver side of engine in between the COP's (Coil on plugs) simply unplug the wire use a 19 or 3/4 deep well socket and unscrew it and put it new one... The whole process should only take 10-15 minutes.
