You know when I am at the coast (1hr west from my house) I can look across the Pacific where 5000 miles of open ocean separate me from Japan, which is EXACTLY where my rear window answer came from. Yes, it was in fact a "Whacky Coincidence" that my rear window stopped working after I put my hand up under my dash. It would appear that the proliferation of gear I keep in back had pushed against the rear door or lock and kept the window from operating. Having pulled stuff out of there to check things out I pushed on the rear door from the outside and fiddled with the lock and now it works with both the key & switch.

Next time I am at the coast I will be waving at you bloodbath4runner <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Thanks!
