Coolant Temperature Sensor

[scruffboy]

Forget the above post fellas, I found what I needed at autozone, and my luck they had it on sale (usually $45, on sale for $27). Once I saw the whole unit, I realized the whole thing screws out, sort of like an oxygen sensor. So the Check Engine light went out. I'm wondering though, is that code now stored in the ECU and need to be cleared, or did fixing it clear it out? Anybody know the answer?

Thanks,

P.S. Thanks Bill UK, you pointed me in the right direction.
