I second Turbopackman's suggestion. If you can't get to the actuator easily that is the best thing to do. You would have to remove the motor ("danger Will Robinson!") then turn the shaft in the actuator housing to the reverse position, where you will be able to access the set screw that fastens the actuator to the valve body shaft. The armature will want to stay on the actuator, causing the brushes to snap together, and that is where the fun starts. I have a fixture I made for getting the armiture back in the motor, this makes it easier for me on the bench, I have done it under the car, and I don't relish the experience.
