First thing to do is make sure all your wires are connected to the starter and battery.

Have you tried starting it in Nuetral as opposed to park? Flip between the two a few times while trying to crank and see if it engages. Maybe the Nuetral safety switch.

I recently had my starter replaced on the SD. With the Bosch unit came a brochure with some trouble shooting hints. "Starter continues to spin momentarily after key is released: Starter drive is defective remove and replace starter." Hope this helps.
