Sounds like the t-case is jammed - can you rotate the shaft in the back of the t-case if the motor is removed?

If the shaft turns freely and the motor is strong enough to turn, then it sounds like you're not installing it correctly. Make sure the t-case shaft is turned to the same setting that the motor is in before you put them together.

So the motor doesn't actually turn? And the original did the same thing as the replacement does now? Have you read this?
