hi everyone. I have an unusual problem and I hope someone has had this issue before that can help me. T6 sunroof motor spindle broke off. the motor still works but cannot drive the frame. the new motor I purchased is a completely different part number. according to Volkswagen it is a supersession and is listed for the vehicle. the new motor does not work when I plug it in. I suspect the new motor pins are different to the old motor pin locations. has anyone had this issue. I cannot find the wiring diagram for the new motor pin locations. Old motor part number: 6X0 959 591E. new motor: 6RD 959 591
 
Part number looks correct. Have you checked fuses?

Hi there, yes we have checked the part umber according to the parts catalog at Volkswagen. The old motor works when plugged in, the only problem is that the gear broke off. so there definitely isn't a fuse or wiring problem. its only when the new motor is plugged in, it doesn't work. so my thinking is that the pin locations on the new motor is different to that of the old one.
