IIRC there is actually 3 CTS's in the car.
1 for the gauge
1 for the ECU
and 1 for the e-fan turn-on
The 1 for the cluster gauge should be a 1 wire sender located under the dizzy on the head.
I THINK the 1 for the ecu is the OTHER sender (2 wire) under the dizzy just forward of the 1 wire jammy....just a couple inches apart from each other.
Last 1 (2 wire) is on the t-stat housing just above where the tranny meets the block on the passenger side...I THINK that's the 1 for the e-fan.
I could be wrong on those though.

^^^ You are right on all of them. To test the circuit just ground the wire that goes to the sensor, the gauge should read full hot.
