It isn't always necessary to drop the engine to do one of these actuators. Realistically, it should probably come in as a $2500 - $3000 job IF the actuator needs to be replaced, which is not always the case. More commonly, this is a wiring issue, which is why the OBD II manual describes it in the manner noted.
