Where is the steering position sensor located?

I went and installed my Alta intake and Brisk plugs today, and while I had the airbox out I decided to douse the shifter linkage in white lithium grease as it's been binding up. After I finished the install, I noticed the DSC and tire pressure lights were on.

I think that it's too much of a coincidence for my wheel sensors to act up the same exact time as the install, so that leads me to believe its the steering position sensor. I've never had this issue in the past.

My question:

Is the steering position sensor located near the shifter linkage on the transmission? My educated guess is I accidentally covered it in white lithium (that's if it is located around there).

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
