DO NOT buy the 16 dollar autozone part. It breaks like the factory ones do. The 44 dollar ones from the dealer is what you want. They are the revised units that will keep tranny fluid from getting up in to your HVAC controls, and all the rest of your vac lines.
Knowledge has no value unless its shared with others.

Yes that is the transfer switch but, don't waste your time with anything but factory revised switch. Others have tried the cheap auto parts switches only to have the dreaded HVAC hiss failure anyway.
