The ac line ac lines make it a pain but it can be done.
An alternative way is to un mount the ac compressor (you don't have to break any lines a loose.) And moove it out the way. Loosen the bottom bolt on the alternator and take the top alternator bolt out. Just swing tha alternator to the side and you wull have access to both sensors
Hope this helps
Well, this thread is 15 years old but it doesn't hurt to put in updates for historical purposes.

It really doesn’t hurt. A picture would be invaluable to me right now
