I need a new Temperature Sending Unit but Autozone doesn't seem to have anything by this name. Is there another name for it?

tell them to look up a temperature switch if you're looking for the one for the gauge. otherwise it's the coolant temp sensor or air charge temp sensor

The coolant temp for the gauge in the cluster. That's called a temperature switch? I thought that had something to do with the A/C.
