Default ETC warning light 2010 4.7l 1500

My etc warning light has been coming on the past couple of days but my coolant temp has been reading >100 up to 278 degrees for the past two weeks. Today, I was taking a slow 90degree turn and my truck started to stall, eventually dying. I can crank it and start but it rough idles for about 3 seconds and kills itself. I've read that it is more than likely the coolant temp sensor but I cannot seem to find it to save my life. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

As I offered before, if you're working with a dealership and need further assistance, please let me know. You can send a PM with your VIN if you'd like.
