I just got this 4 runner.
The switch for the back window wouldn't work but the key in the back would.
Now that won't even work. Any simple solutions?
I was tighten the battery cable at one point, then later that day I tried the back and it didn't work. Is there something around the battery? I check all the fuses, unless that one is tucked away some where. Anyone know exactly where that one would be or where I can find out. I didn't see it in the manual.
thanks

This is a stupid question but i have to ask. Is your window lock off?

randes

Unless there's a specific lock for that door, I've had all un-locked and it still didn't work. I'll double check that tho. I have it a part right now trying to change the belts.

Is the switch on the tail gate up?

randes

no switch on the tail gate, the key opens it.

Wow, you're good. Thats what it was. Can't believe that hasn't happened til now. I would have never thought of that since I'm using a key to open the window. You saved me some money. You should feel good about that, I know I do.
thanks

OOps. spoke to soon. Went for a drive, did some shopping, worked then, got back and it wouldn't open.
Any other ideas? sounds like a short somewhere, probly need to take it in.
thanks any way.

There's an interlock switch on the rear wiper that can cause this problem. If the rear wiper isn't properly parked, the rear window won't open. Make sure the wiper is all the way up, and wiggle it a bit.

that was it. thanks again. Know anything about the switch for the back window and why that doesn't work? Fine if you don't, you've been a real big help. Is there an easy way to get that to park properly?

thanks
