I am having serious difficulty locating the CHT sensor on my engine. Where exactly is the CHT sensor located on a 2014 Fusion 1.5L EcoBoost? I have the Ford schematic, but I can’t find it. What do I need to remove to access it?

Exact location in that guide, nothing here. I don’t understand ☹

Well, it has a wire lead. Follow any and all leads in the area.

Looks like your engine came with (uses CHT) or with out (uses ECT) the CHT sensor…

Guessing yours does not…  
I used the VIN from your sheet…

Seems yours just uses the traditional ECT vs the CHT, looks like they also have different inputs to the ECM, so the values are different and not interchangeable nor would the ECM be able to accurately track coolant temperatures…
