Rear window

[SilentYoda3]

Alright so the new 4Runner has some issues with the back window. Hopefully you guys can help. It want's to catch on the way up (maybe like a chipped gear tooth or something) My thoughts were to just pull the panel and lube everything. Also the window will go down, but doesn't want to come up with the switch. (Figure probably a switch issue) Just curious to get your guys' thoughts.

to test use a battery charger and wire it to the motor and force it and see whats happening

Take a look at the window as it comes up. There is an electrical connection ( held by blue piece in the picture below) that is attached to the the rear wall of the tailgate that is held on by glue. When mine came loose it would fall into the path of the window and slow down the window until the wires got tight and it snapped back.

As far as the switch not working going up, it sound like you are looking in the right place.

Well it seems the speed of the window is consistant, but it seems to catch on something.

does the window act the same with either switch? When it gets cold, my window doesn't go back up... the relay is at fault here
