by your coolant fill cap there should be 2 or 3 sensors (depending on year) the 1 wire sensor closet to the firewall is the one you want.

if your gauge isnt working it doesnt really need to be connected anymore. the computer uses the other sensor for everything. one wire sensor is just for display.
