WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Infiniti M45. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

CAUTION: Be sure to remove or install the actuator with the door lock assembly removed.

Remove the mounting screws, and remove the actuator from the door lock assembly.
Pull the actuator straight downward to separate it from the door lock assembly.
