Worm-gear connection in Simscape Multibody

Hello. I imported a CAD model of a solar tracker in simscape multibody, and i want to add the worm gear block. I read the examples but still can't find out how to connect it. my model is shown in the picture below. Ihave the solid of a worm, and another solid of the gear, but when i connect them with the worm-gear block i get the error of

• ['FIRST2/Solver Configuration']: *** Model not assembled: position violation *** Resolve this issue in order to simulate the model.

Any ideas about the connection? Thank you

And the position of B and F reached through the two paths In your mechanism concurrent.

Good Luck / Juan
