Rear window (surprise surprise) but this case seems different than most. Please help!

Ok so of course my 92 rear window messed up as with every other 2nd gen. But my problem seems different than most others. One day after I turned my vehicle off, the rear window all of a sudden started going down on its own in short spurts (as if the switch was being turned on and off) eventually going down all the way, the window would then not roll up, I could hear the switch contacting the relay but nothing happened, also, I could hear the relay going haywire as if it was still trying to roll the window down. I got a new relay and installed it, did the exact same thing, I tried disconnecting all of the wires inside the tailgate and none stopped the clicking of the relay except for the main feed from the relay to the tailgate. I tried disconnecting both the tailgait switch and the inside switch to see if it was one of them stuck on forcing the window to stay down but that wasnt it. PLLLEEAASE if anyone can help in any way I am desperate I feel like I have tried everything and I dont want to pay Toyota 1000 bucks to do something that will cost them 50 bucks. It seems like the only thing it could be is the piece of wire connecting the relay to the tailgate but why would that do anything?? Also im pretty sure its not the motor cause it worked fine up until this happened. URG! And I live in a town where it rains constantly so I am not able to drive my yota.. and well its driving me crazy! Also if anyone knows how to get the rear window up in the meantime i would also appreciate that. Thanks and sorry for making this so long.

Sounds like a bad wire to me. The good news is that the window is stuck open, so you can open the tailgate up and take a look at your connections.
 
I would open the wire loom in between the truck body and tail gate. I would suspect the problem may be there.
