That motor as posted above is 30. When you push it up all the way 1 it will push itself off of the actuator. Again the difficulty was not bad to replace the motor. Pull the actuator so you can get a handle on the electrical connection.

Transfer the mounting bracket and dust cover to the new lock actuator. It has a little purple plastic piece on the top that you need to insert a broad flathead into and push up. Unplug the door lock actuator electrical connector. If you take the time to remove the assembly just replace the motor.

You should see the voltage polarity toggle with each switch activation. There was no room and led to many nicks and cuts. Door lock systems operate the actuator by toggling positive negative voltage to the actuator. Unclip the lock rods and unplug the wiring harness.

Plug in the wiring harness and lock rods. Way cheaper than the whole assembly. Once the actuator is free from the door it should be hanging by the interior lock rod.
