It is in the middle of the active grille shutter. in front of the condenser. very easy to replace. It pushes in and has a standard connector. i replaced mine when i redid the front end so had everything taken apart. might be able to reach in and access it without removing bumper front underneath via removal of the plastic skid plate though. attached is an image of it from service data and 2 images showing in person on mine. directly in the middle. [dont mind the mark on bottom bottom scrape.. somebody thought it was funny to put a cinder block in front of car while i was parked so i went forward and bumped it and immediately backed up... i was not happy lol]
