Do you have the link to that Tis?
Yes, whenever the key is near the car, the motor clicks. Almost like it’s getting in position in case you start the car. I put the new motor on and left all assembled with battery connected and it would randomly make noise from time to time. Fuel pump fuse was removed to prevent fuel from spraying everywhere.
So it looks like I need to assemble the car so I can drive it and do the run in procedure.
Here is a video of how my motor behaves now.
It is 4 different clips, but clip 2 and 3 look the same because the camera didn’t move.
The first 2 clips is how the motor moved right after install.
The third clip shows a smooth motion moving the shaft down quite a ways and then back up and clicking.
The fourth clip shows the shaft in its normal position when engine is off and the motor moves it down a bit and then back up and clicks.
Here is what I think.
The smooth motion in the third clips tells me that the gear on the shaft and the new motor will work and mesh together.
The movement of fourth clip makes me think the motor is moving the shaft down and then back up based on stock motor/DME settings, but the shaft hits the physical stopper so the motor clicks.
I am hoping that the re learn fixes this issue and it is not a shaft issue.

In case things couldn’t get worse, you can also hear my 6 month old water pump beginning to fail I think. It is starting to run when the ignition is on.
Lifetime warranty from Fcp but the second most annoying job I’ve done on this.
