    Good video. It helped a lot. There is a piece of ductwork under the dash below the glovebox that is held on by 2 screws. If you take it out as well, then you can work from underneath and actually see most of what you are doing, instead of doing it all by feel.

    Excellent video. So what actually fails? A bad ground? Can I use zero ohm dialetric grease? I would suspect the gears are binding due to play. I will be taking mine apart. I am also going to test the ground and the connector for continuity and check that the required voltage is to OEM specifications.

      ​@@DIYwithMichaelBordersTook a good hour. Used a thumb drive purchased from harborfreight for $5. Not sure I could have done it without. Tore the crap out of the skin on left arm...and that was with a protective sleeve on it. I would recommend to those doing this, put a small towel in the space below the unit. That way if you drop a tool or screw the towel will catch and you won't have to take more 'stuff' apart. Also, I had to plug the new unit in to the power cord to get the splines of the white post to match the old unit so I could install and match to the holes it fits into. Looking at videos of the inside of this thing I agree with Michael, you probably don't want to go twisting the white post. BTW this was a 2021 and part still looks the same...
