Hi Alan,

I assume you're doing a full Frame+Screen replacement rather than just the screen, since the screen only replacement doesn't have any need to take out the part you're referring to, the vibration motor.

That motor is just secured with adhesive; once you remove the motherboard it's simply a matter of heating it to loosen the glue, then prying it off. That process is shown in Step 35 of this screen+frame guide.

The guide is written in French, but if you use a web browser like Chrome that does translation, you'll find it easy enough to use.
