door lock actuator fixable?

My driver's door power lock didn't always work or was "lazy" when it did, so I used the forum and learned how to remove it from the door. Then I took it to the computer to find out how to do the "aluminum foil" fix but this actuator doesn't seem to have a resistor to rap in aluminum. Are the 2005 Super duty latch mounted actuators not fixable like the older ones or am I missing something regarding the wherabouts of the resistor? Thanks for any and all help.

Me Again.

No response is needed now as the job is done. However for reference for others the 2005 actuator is fixable using the aluminum foil technique, and it works like magic.
