Another "rear window wont work" thread.......

window wont roll up or down.
I have 2 relays that I tried both of them and they both make a clicking sound when I try to roll up or down the window.
I tried the wire jump method for the rear wiper plug.
the key in tailgate window roll down didn't work
the only thing that worked was me getting my m18 battery and jumping wires from the +&- to the motor and thats the only way it worked.
any other suggestions?

 

If the relays are clicking and the window doesn’t move, the relays are worn out. Remove the window control PC board and replace the relays. The parts are cheap, the relays are $1.50 each and they are relatively easy to replace. Here is a good reference for the replacement.

I recently replaced my relays and also did the jumper mod. It is really handy to use the forward switch without having the key in the ignition.

 

Dremel the plastic top off the relays and burnish the contacts with a small strip of sandpaper like you are flossing them

 

Is the wiper fully home and parked? I ask this not knowing if clicking relays is a sign that the wiper is home.
