Get on the floor and look under the bumper and behind the number plate there is a small black block thing it is that. It should just un plug

not as easy as that
you have to go through the front of the bumper due to how the radiator is positioned & bumper attached to the car.
you can always remove the bumper, but for a farty thing like that I'd just do the fiddly job...
tis as fiddly as gettin a fingers in the pants of a virgin...
