If it is a new shift motor, and you know it is good, my guess would be a problem with the power supply to it, i.e, it isn't getting power on the green/red and orange wires from ECU to motor. Another possibility is a mechanical fault, something stuck, so the motor can't turn the mechanism. Try changing gear with the motor out of the gearbox, if the motor spins, then you probably have something jammed.
