Should be the same procedure, the part moved slightly but the steps match.
The "what went wrong" section is the most useful part of this. More people should do that.
Glad it helped.
The embedded video is clearer than the official service manual, which is a little embarrassing for the manufacturer.
Right around what the post says, give or take shipping.
