Default headlight problem

ok so a few weeks ago i came out to my my car having a dead battery i was like wtf i get it jumped and it making this weird noise lift up the hood to find that my head light motor is spinning with the heads lights off. so i disconnect the motor. i thot it was a worn gear so thats why its not turning off. well today i went to autozone and bought a new motor. well this motor is doing the same thing it just spins. how can i fix this?

Is the nut tight that holds the arm onto the motor stem? Or maybe the arm is stripped?
