Do not plug the motor in and turn it.You have to turn the transfer case rod/shaft to line up with the motor. The motor is timed and if it turns it will get out of time and junk it.

Use a pair of pliers to turn the shaft on the TRANSFER and line it up to the motor before you ever plug the wiring up.
