Did anyone solve the riddle? Hello all, I see quite a few people battling the rear window paralysis. Did anyone actually solve it and care to share? Even if it was a dealership visit... what did they do and what did it cost? I finally took the regulator motor out and measured all 6 pins in...

2008 4R Tailgate window stopped working Seems like I am not alone... Has anyone been able to fix this? Here are my observations: Trying to lower the tailgate window with key: no sound, no movement Trying to lower the tailgate window with button on remote: no sound, no movement Trying to lower...

Update and hopefully lasting solution: Went to O'Reilly where they found the alternator to be fine and the just over 5 year old Interstate All Season Battery to be bad. Swapped it out right there. Two days later car starts all normal. Thank you AuSeeker for sharing your insight and guiding my...

Hi all, Tuesday the 2008 SR5 V6 didn't start. Went click, click, click. Then I see that the rear wiper is standing up straight as if it was on. I check the wiper controls and it is turned off. I play with the wiper controls and it parks the rear wiper. I charge the battery. The Runner starts...

2008 4Runner cranks but won't stay on... Hello all, I am having an odd issue with my 2008 V6 4Runner not starting. The starter keeps going even after I stop turning the key!! It acts as if it isn't getting any gas. I did disconnect the battery (both poles for 10 minutes) to reset the computer...
