I had this listed and 80+ people looked at it and no one even bothered to say hey man that sucks I wish I could help.

I have a 2000 Toyota 4runner SR5. My rear wiper stopped working so I thought maybe the motor went bad, so I replaced it. DIDNT WORK. I thought next that it may be the relay that is on the tailgate, so I replaced it. DIDNT WORK. My rear window go down when I lift the tailgate. It seems to have a mind of its own. Someone mentioned that it might be a grounding problem. Any suggestions, I had to unplug the tailgate so my window didnt keep going down and I have no rear wiper. PLEASE HELP.

 

no clue man.....had to look....wish i could offer some sort of advice.

 

Does sucks to be you help????

 

OK....if your '00 is like my '97 you may want to check the bundle of wires at the top of the tailgate.
I had to repair half of them on my 4Runner, they were breaking at the point where the rubber boot is inbetween the tailgate and body.
There is a connector above the headliner, you can check there also with a multimeter.
Hope this helps.

 

thanks for the replies. I will check the wires and report back.

...I think you are on the right track with the wire bundle.
