Changing source of Pivot Table

I have the following code which worked at some point but now throws me an error at ".SourceData = rng.Address(True, True, xlR1C1, True)" 

Dim rng As Range
Set rng = ActiveSheet.Range("A1:F" & LastRow)
Set shTotalsPivot = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Totals Pivot")


With shTotalsPivot.PivotTables(1).PivotCache
   .SourceData = rng.Address(True, True, xlR1C1, True)
   .Refresh
End With

Could you please advise what I am doing incorrectly. I simply want to change a source in the existing pivot table to the new sheet which will an active sheet in this case. Thanks

In order to include the sheet's name of the Range.Address, the 4th parameter needs to be xlExternal.

See modified code below:

Dim shTotalsPivot As Worksheet
Dim Rng As Range
Dim RngString As String
Dim PvtTbl As PivotTable

Set Rng = ActiveSheet.Range("A1:F" & LastRow)

' put the full range address (including sheet name) in a String variable
RngString = Rng.Address(False, False, xlA1, xlExternal)

Set shTotalsPivot = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Totals Pivot")

'set the Pivot-Table object
Set PvtTbl = shTotalsPivot.PivotTables(1)

' === for DEBUG ONLY ===
Debug.Pring RngString

' update the Pivot-Cache
With PvtTbl.PivotCache
   .SourceData = RngString
   .Refresh
End With

See if this works. The source must be a string and include the sheet name, and you are referring to a pre-existing PT, hence the use of ChangePivotCache.

shTotalsPivot.PivotTables(1).ChangePivotCache _
    ThisWorkbook.PivotCaches.Create( _
    SourceType:=xlDatabase, _
    SourceData:=ActiveSheet.Name & "!" & rng.Address(True, True, xlR1C1, True))
shTotalsPivot.PivotTables(1).refresh
