The Special tools you are talking about are available at AutoZone for less than 5 dollars. Try disconnecting your battery for 5 minutes and then reconnect it. This fixes over half of them. If you do have to remove it and dissasemble it to fix it, be very careful. After you remove the 4 torx screws on the side of the unit. Slowly lift the rear of the unit till you can see the ribbon cable and the small 2 wire plug that connect the unit to the mechanism. If the battery thing does not work, there is going to be 1 disk that is not in the right position. You will be able to see it. Just push it the rest of the way in and reassemble the unit.
