So I removed the driver side dash lower insulation/cover(just above the pedals). That allows pretty good access to the upper areas. I was able to determine which actuator was clicking. While trying to determine which one was faulty I found that a cam was disconnected from an arm that connects to the mechanism that has the faulty actuator. When I went to touch the cam, it literally fell out of the hole it was resting in, but fell behind the tunnel insulation. So I had to spend a bit of time to extract that part.
The actuator that is faulty is also used in a lower area of the dash on this same side of the drivers side area.
I am in the process of tracking parts down to then purchase and install.

| This is a shot from below...the circle is where the cam is located and connects to that arm, the larger upper arrow is pointing to the clicking actuator |
