Hello, You must start by disconnecting the battery to avoid shorts. Then you will need to remove the serpentine belt and the balancer along with the timing cover. Here are some guides to give you an idea for what you are if for to get the job started:

Below are the diagrams you will need to do the timing chain and actuators for your car.



Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem.
