Hello RCheeseman, don't give up.. you just need to get familiar with the car layout.

If you put the car on jack stands, laying on the floor (a thick piece of cardbox is great for this) and just spend some time underneath looking at all the details of the design, you will be able to see where the engine and transmission are attached to each other, on the engine side is the flywheel, this is where the sensor is bolted to the engine.

Be patient with the harness connector as mentioned earlier, remove the connector from the holder before you separate the connector.

Good luck!
