You don’t need the bumper off.
Jack the car up, pull the undertray, and you can reach it from underneath. It’s on the passenger side (left side if you’re facing the car), near the radiator support, tucked behind that shield you saw.
Just remove the small plastic splash shield right there 3 or 4 screws and you’ll see the sensor screwed into the AC line. Unplug, unscrew, new one in, recharge.
No need to touch the bumper at all.

Thanks guys! I replaced the sensor and had the A/C recharged. All good now.
Thanks again for the help.
