I believe it is connected to the thermostat housing behind the distributer.

there are 2 switches on the thermostat housing on my LX-i ( I just changed the housing ) other than your temp sending unit. I had to replace both switches because a machine shop screwed my housing up takin a bolt out and they were closed for the weekend and still had my housing. According the Honda dealer in Atlanta the one closest to the head ( a black one on mine)is what they call a TW Switch (water temp, why they call it TW is beyond me) The next switch out going away from the head Mine was green, the new one I got was blue?)is what they (they=parts counter and book) calleda Thermo switch which is what I had read somewhere was also called an ECT Switch.
