I've attached a picture of what inside of the mechanism looks like.



**The picture is of the inside of the caliper where the actual piston sits. You will be working on the backside where the motor attaches. This picture is just to show what happens inside when you move the main torx screw, it slides the piston in or out depending on which way you move it, the motor does the same thing when its attached.**
thanks for all the info on that! pictures always helps!
