Ok, dont mean to bring up an old thread..but of course my tailgate wiring needs somehelp.
The window goes down correctly with the master switch on my dash, but not with the key. After looking into it i found the problem to be the "always hot" power wire for the key switch was broken right where the wires bends. I'll probably replace at least a section of all the wires.
I'm thinking instead of having wiring go into the tailgate, and have them eventually break again from teh repeated opening/closing of the tailgate, of using some of these.

You would put one on the back of the quarter panel, and the other would go on the tailgate. when the tailgate is closed, the circuits would be completed by them touching (each nub is spring loaded)
Since you would never move your tailgate glass when the tailgate open, i dont see that being an issue...any feedback?
