You can do this yourself but be prepared. Not as straight forward as any video shows it to be. Will need to use 1/4" drive sockets, flex adapter and ratchet or driver handle. Most important is to free the uppermost electrical connector by getting the barbed pin out of it's hole. It can be pushed upward or even cut off depending. I pushed mine through no need to reconnect the barb wiring will not be hurt if not. There is not a whole lot of room up there. Your hand gets sort of wedged and not a lot of leverage. Then you can pull the motor downward instead. Much easier to disconnect lower connector at the motor. You will need some sort of flex adapter or if you have flex sockets the better. The inner screw is the headache inducer. The videos do show to use the bid gear out of the old motor, break it apart to get it, and make sure blend door operates smoothly. Push comes to shove you could duct tape up the gear in the position you're looking for but that door is tough to keep in place. Another thing is the socket for the gear shaft is sort of indexed you can see the bigger gap between the splines also the nee motor is indexed to the straight up arrow. As I did you may find that when trying to insert new motor into splines the blend door may move on it's own, keep on eye on that, may get frustrating a bit. Of course make sure your new motor is actually working before installing. Mark your blend door female socket indexes with sharpie pen. You can do this job with patience.
