HINT
* Use pliers or an equivalent tool to initially rotate the cover, and then proceed to remove the shift control actuator bolt and cover by pulling the cover towards the front of the vehicle by hand while rotating the bolt counterclockwise.
* This actuator is a precision instrument. Do not strike it with a plastic hammer or the like during installation.
* This actuator detects its own position when the auxiliary battery is reconnected. Thus it does not require initialization.

It is not always necessary to replace or remove/install the shift control actuator seal at the same time when replacing the shift control actuator assembly.
