Default servo won't stop spinning

It's on a Slo-V that had a fairly rough crash due to a nice gust of wind.
It broke a few teeth on one of the servos. Went to the more than helpful local hobby shop and got a gear set.
Put the gears on and the motor in the servo keeps spinning. There is reaction to controle input, but at center stick the motor spins.
The other servo had no damage and is operating normaly to controle input and is at rest when controler is at center stick.
I figure it must be a simple fix that I don't know about.
I prefer the fix it and find out how it works over replace the part route to trouble shooting.
I've been fixing electronics for over a dozen years so don't be shy with the technical terms.

Thanks Bob
