Left rear ABS sensor replacement

Hello all, I have a 2011 Maxima SV that I bought at the beginning of February. Not long after the purchase the ABS light came on. I hooked it to my diagnostic tool and it says to replace the sensor on the left rear side. I can easily disconnect it from the wheel. But I'm not sure exactly where the other side of the connection is at and would really appreciate help. Thank you in advance

Just trace it up above the sway bar...alldatadiy says you will need to disconnect the sway bar and bushings to get to the connector anyway (disclaimer, I have NOT replaced the sensor, just the wheel bearings because I had some free time.)

Note: Just because a diag tool says to replace the sensor, doesn't mean that sensor is bad. I would check the connections and wheel bearing assy first (make sure it is good or you will back under the car.) But just be careful with that bolt connecting the Sensor to the wheel bearing assy and take care with the connectors. Repinning and/or putting on a new connector without a lift isn't my favorite thing to do....especially if you are up north.
