They don't usually go wrong so not many about and they are difficult to find new.
Either find a engineer company that can recommission it or 2nd may be the only option?

Breakers or post a WTB in the classified here, thesamba.com vwvortex.com

The Manuals use a different one than the power steering and a 90ish is also different IIRC same for the power assisted versus manual.

Look to the ETKA to get the drill down to specific one needed.

What do Divorces, Great Coffee, and Car Electrics all have in common?

They all start with GOOD Grounds.

Where are my DIY Links?
