Best Answer

I just turned a motorized trunk motor on a 1996 Deville into a non-mortorized latch.

1. Unplug electrical connection, remove the whole latch assembly.

2. Remove metal motor housing, may be torx screws, pull housing off, motor shaft may come out also.

3. Motor brushes can be pulled out of the way to reinsert motor shaft to engage drive gear.

4. Turn drive shaft manually to lower latch to proper closing height. Look on latch shaft you will see where to stop.

5. It will take many turns to obtain proper closing height.

6. You do not have to put motor back together, just mount latch assembly back in trunk. If height is not correct, use motor shaft to adjust up or down. Leave electrical connector unpluged.

I just did mine, works great! Save lots of money!
