According to mine service manual the temp sensor is in the valve body and tied in with the governor pressure sensor. It could be failing if the lamp is coming on at startup. it's all I got.

Yes it is replacable. It is attached to the valve body. Follow the wring harness, it should be the last item 4pin coonector side corner of valvebody. i don't know if it can be done without removing the Vb. Diagrams show you should be able to. Get a new one then you can see how it will attach. Sry can't be better help.
