I have a stock 2018 X-TX. Threw the SD-08 code when putting it in storage at the end of the season. I pulled the actuator. (it has a brass gear) The actuator gear does not move when the button is pressed. The actuator will not turn by hand when removed from the sled. I'm assuming it's the actuator itself.
thoughts?

The actuator should not turn by hand. If you have the actuator removed try putting 12v straight to the actuator, you can connect the + /- to either pin on actuator and see if it works.

Happened to my buddy last week. Sprayed contact cleaner in the switch on the bars and all good!

I'll try jumping the actuator since it's on the bench and go from there...

I had one that wouldn’t shift.removed actuator, Pop the cover off so you can see the gear. Contact cleaner I think I had to manually turn it to get it started then spun it for like a minute at a time alternating directions
It was intermittent but after a bit it worked fine in both directions before closing it up I put some dielectric grease on the gear. So far so good it still works fine
This was in early December of 21
