Coolant temp sensor

Hi all , my coolant temp sensor on my 1975 Daimler Sovereign Coupe is not working just after a visit to my mechanic to deal with an oil leak .I suspect they have loosened the connection of the send unit while cleaning up the area of the leak.Can someone help with a pic of exactly where it is located.I do not believe it is the unit in the dash or a fuse.

Regards Ben Uri

On my 87', the coolant temp sensor is mounted on the passenger side of radiator, about 12" down from the top. Is a large, 1" hex-head, screwed into radiator header.

that is the auxiliary fan Thermal Switch, not the Coolant Temp Sensor.
