Transfer case selector shaft positions

[bodabdan]

Well, since I bragged about it the other day it decided to break on me. 2005 1500 suburban LT 4x4, push button h/l/auto.
When trying to switch it from 4h to 4l, there was a loud pop and the transfer case went to neutral and stayed there.
I pulled the front driveshaft and the servomotor and managed to get it into a high range to make it home. Found a broken drive gear in the servomotor but I'm not sure yet if that's a cause or a symptom?
I know that the index on the selector shaft points at 6 o'clock in neutral. Where are the other positions for the selector shaft?
TIA!

I looked all over google and then finally asked chatGPT.

Procedure to install a new encoder motor. With encoder motor plugged in but not mounted on Tcase push button to Neutral. Place Tcase shift shaft in position that matches the neutral position for an easy fit when installing the encoder motor.
