Personally, the only way I know of to un freeze them, is to take the LIM off, and clean them up. Not a small job by any means.

*edit* You can take the actuators off, thats easy. See if they are working first.

pump air into them using an air compressor. If you're lucky, they'll get unstuck. If they don't... gotta do what J-Rat said

I removed the LIM to get mine unfroze. Its the only way that appeared to solve the problem. Upon removal, the sleeves were blackened where they were froze closed. You could see the port shape burnt onto the sleave.

Removing the lim makes unfreezing the aux ports easy as hell. the only problem is removing the manifolds and crap to do it...
