I'll update this thread when I get things figured out for future reference for others.

A lot of electric clutches when not powered, are in a brake position.
Because the gubber mint has a standard that says they have to come to a stop in a said amount of time after disengaging.
So it might turn, but with difficulty, because of the brake feature.
