I've had the same freakshow with my cars too,sometimes they would just fix themselves all of a sudden. There is a ground connection on one of the mounting bolts, check that. Why a working motor doesn't work in a different car I can't say, but I did fix it on my old 87 by replacing the delay board which is the circuit board behind the plastic cover on the motor. It will cause a no shut off and all kinds of problems. It's available from GM for about $35 and I think a complete motor with the board is like $120 brand new.
