Check the micro switch in the rear quarter panel. If you have a bolt missing from the hard top (Where the switch is) then it will not go up or down.

I think it is the 3rd bolt from the back window that has the switch on it.

Sorry I couldn't offer any more help, I think I'm one of the few Runner owners that hasn't had any problems with my back window

Try this, on the inside of the runner take the switch off of the 5 pin connector. Then take an alligator clip( wire whatever), ground it like to the key or bolt some where on the truck. Then put it on one side of the 5 pin, then on the other side. One side makes it go up one side makes it go down!











Sorry their big, if you can do this and it works that its most likely its your switch. They cost like 84$ from dealership. Look on Ebay though!
