The 6-pin housing locking tab is a common failure point — it fractures when the connector is removed during headliner or sunroof motor service. A partially disengaged connector causes intermittent or complete loss of the sunroof switch, reading light, or mirror adjustment function, often misdiagnosed as a switch or motor failure. Replacing the connector restores full function without replacing the switch assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOEM Part Number Cross-Reference\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eOEM Number\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eNotes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6Q0972706\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePrimary VAG part number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6Q0972706A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRevised part number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1-969490-4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTE Connectivity equivalent (female housing)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1-969489-4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTE Connectivity equivalent (male housing)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1-969490-2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAlternate TE Connectivity part number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e6-Pin Circuit Function (Typical VAG Interior Layout)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePin Group\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTypical Function\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFailure Symptom if Open\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePins 1–2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSunroof switch power and ground\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSunroof switch inoperative\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePins 3–4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eReading light power and ground\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eReading light not illuminating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePins 5–6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMirror switch signal or courtesy light\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMirror adjustment inoperative, courtesy light fault\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAttribute\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePin Count\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6-Pin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOEM Part Numbers\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6Q0972706 \/ 6Q0972706A \/ 1-969490-4 \/ 1-969489-4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHousing Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNylon PA66\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApplication\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSunroof switch, reading light module, mirror switch harness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible Brands\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVolkswagen, Audi, SEAT, Škoda (VAG platform)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTerminal Included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatible Applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVW Golf\u003c\/strong\u003e (Mk4\/Mk5\/Mk6) – Sunroof switch and reading light harness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVW Polo\u003c\/strong\u003e (9N\/6R) – Overhead console connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVW Passat\u003c\/strong\u003e (B5\/B6) – Interior lighting and mirror switch harness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVW Jetta \/ Bora\u003c\/strong\u003e – Sunroof and reading light connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAudi A3 \/ A4\u003c\/strong\u003e – Shared VAG interior connector platform\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSEAT \/ Škoda\u003c\/strong\u003e – Overhead console harness (shared VAG platform)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: My VW Golf sunroof switch stopped working after a headliner repair — is it the connector?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes. The 6-pin overhead console connector is frequently damaged during headliner removal. The locking tab fractures when the connector is pulled at an angle, causing it to partially disengage. The sunroof switch loses power (Pins 1–2) while the reading light may still function. Inspect the connector before replacing the sunroof switch or motor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What fault codes does a failed interior connector cause?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Interior switch connectors typically do not generate powertrain DTCs. Faults appear as inoperative switches or lights. On vehicles with a comfort\/convenience module (BCM), the module may log a \"sunroof switch circuit open\" or \"reading light circuit\" fault in the body control module scan data.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Does this connector fit both the sunroof switch and the reading light on the same vehicle?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes. VAG standardised the 6Q0972706 connector housing across multiple overhead console functions on the same platform. The same housing is used for sunroof switch, reading light, and mirror switch harnesses — only the terminal wire colours differ by application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Are terminals included?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes, terminals are included with all variants.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cable Parts Online","offers":[{"title":"1 Pcs \/ blue with Pin","offer_id":47838084038901,"sku":"14:350852#blue with Pin;380:202835807#1 Pcs","price":21.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 Pcs \/ black with wires","offer_id":47838084202741,"sku":"14:350853#black with wires;380:202835807#1 Pcs","price":33.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 Pcs \/ brown with Pin","offer_id":47838084071669,"sku":"14:350850#brown with Pin;380:202835807#1 Pcs","price":21.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 Pcs \/ brown with wires","offer_id":47838084169973,"sku":"14:10#brown with wires;380:202835807#1 Pcs","price":36.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 Pcs \/ black with Pin","offer_id":47838084104437,"sku":"14:350686#black with Pin;380:202835807#1 Pcs","price":18.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 Pcs \/ blue with wires","offer_id":47838084137205,"sku":"14:29#blue with wires;380:202835807#1 Pcs","price":36.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0732\/3494\/0149\/files\/S00e855436e654009a5c196386b4d58a5p.webp?v=1773726596","url":"https:\/\/www.csldmcml.com\/products\/vw-6-pin-sunroof-reading-light-mirror-connector-oem-6q0972706","provider":"Cable Parts Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
