Hey! I can’t seem to figure out how to get my back tailgate window to roll up. It is stuck in the down position and I cannot get to the motor. Any Ideas?

Why can’t you get to the motor? The inner panel should come off and there is the motor. It isn’t like the tailgate is locked shut.

The glass is stuck in the down position on top of the motor!

Unbolt the glass from the regulator and slide it up out of the way.
