hi guys I need some help.
please refer to this Liftgate parts =>
Liftgate for 2010 Toyota 4Runner | Boch Toyota South
Over a year ago I changed part#4 (Windows Regulator 69807-35030) in my 2010 Limited because it was all rusted due to water sipping into the gate. it was crumbling down so i changed it. I was able to reuse the Window motor (part number 85720-35160). Everything was working great.
a few month back, the back window stopped rolling up and down. I tried several times over a few days to roll the window up and I was able to slowly roll it up and keep it closed since. Since that day the wiper and the defroster stopped working. no issue in operating the lift gate itself.
Today I tried to open everything to see what was the issue. All the wire harnesses looked fine (no cracked cables anywhere). I swapped the Multiplex module with my 2019 Runner but made no difference. so I reconnected the old multiplex module. At some point the window rolled down all the way using the front switch. and that was the end of it. the hatch window does not roll up no matter what I do. One thing I noticed is that when i push the front switch slightly i hear a click in the lift gate.... as if the motor is trying to turn but it is not able to. The window up/down buttons on the lift gate only lock/unlock the car when i push them... no affect on the window roll.
any ideas what could be wrong? i am not looking to take part the window motor from my 2019 and try it in the 2010 Limited. Did anyone here experience this issue? do you think it could be the motor?
thanks
