[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 576106, member: 175144"] Having taken a load of them apart, you will need a pozidrive screwdriver for the outer casing, and a very long set of needle nose pliers to undo the two nuts in the recesses of the F plug connectors. Once you have loosened the lid (the warranty sticker will almost certainly tear in two) the main drive shaft of the actuator arm may need careful prising out of its socket in the top. After a year of use in harsh conditions this may need some force by clamping the lid in a vice, and levering the two halves apart. There are no screws holding the PCB, it is located in two grooves in a small pocket at the end of the motor, and if the wires to the motor gearbox are not on a snap connector, they should just be just long enough to allow the PCB to slip out of the housing, and accessible with a fine tip soldering iron.
