Ok on the front by the Engine,
where the Coolant hoses come in you
will see all kinds of sensors,
but only one with 2-separate plugs on top,
that is your "Temp Sesor/warning contact"
check it for loose or cracket wire first,
it should be the one closest to the drivers side.

I personally do not trust the ohm testing of it,
its kind of like replaiceing the thermostat,
but really check to make sure of contacts first.

Sincerely Jens
