the sensor next to the solenoid is the vtec pressure switch. The ect is located on the thermostat housing. Can you describe the sensor by the lower radiator hose?

ECT is actually on the side of the head
the vtec switch is on the side of the solenoid(green plug)

The fan switch is on the thermostat housing

Yup the ECT and ECT gauge are mounted on the distributor end of the head... The ECTSW is mounted on the thermostat housing and controls the radiator fan just as sgT said... Peace
