United-States Update

With the motor out and determining the contacts were good, I decided to rotate the contact gear, plug the motor back in to see if it would return to the park position. I did this by removing the two 7mm bolts which secure the motor to the gear housing. At this point I discovered the motor hac siezed. When I got it apart I found there had been a slight bit of moisture in the motor. No mystery here considering where it is located, and no sealant used on the motor can. I also noticed there was abloutly no grease in the reat bushing.
Cleaned it up, pluged it in, and WALAH.

Now I have to put the whole damn car back together. I hate things made in France. Couldn't they have gone to a quality company? say...one in China
