Indeed in order to be able to move the package tray(big center piece ) or the sides triangle shape parts , you have to unplug some cable in each side (kind of a pita, until you get a feel for it, very unaccesible spaces to get to this cable. Anyways, here are some pics of the part that needed replaced. If you have any other questions , just ask... good luck
I experienced this exact issue with the fault code B2518 when I used TechStream. I had Lexus put the package tray motor in for $680 labor cost and everything works as it should.

Previously, when I brought the car to Lexus, they could not trigger a malfunction. TechStream is a must for troubleshooting top issues. Thanks to this forum I was able to pin the root cause.

Congratulations on getting it working! You are right, the system only displays code as it goes through it's process. It does not store them. If the system works "Off & On" it can be very frustrating trying to catch the code.
