Ford F-150 Grinding Problem

The windshield wiper motor unit is making a loud grinding noise like it may need lubricating. How would you do this without taking it to a mechanic. The unit appears to come apart but has electrical connections on it. If I take it apart is there anything inside that will come apart if separated? I would like to lubricate this week while I am off and have time.

There is nothing to lubericate in it. I would recommend replacing it.
