Toyota 4Runner problem

Motor going bad

The new tires shouldn't have anything to do with that. Just get it looked at before it might possibly fall down into the frame.

I'd disconnect the battery and let it sit for 30 minutes.

I had a rear window issue with my Lexus. I read somewhere that if you hold down the window button in the front while slamming the back door it would fix it. It worked.

I dont remember if the process I described is exactly right but it was something like that.

I haven't read all the responses, but if there's something blocking it from rolling all the way up it automatically rolls back down. Maybe something is jammed in the top?

Sounds like the anti trap function needs to be relearned. A quick Google search should tell you how to do it.

post the problem on the 4runner forum : LINK /

very common problem on toyota master switches...you have to pulse it back up, if you hold the button too long it reverts to automatic and comes down so just pulse it back to closed.

Try this OP.

This worked on my F-150, so may work on the 4Runner also.

I'm assuming you have to push down on the button to lower the window and pull up on it to raise it right?

If so, put the window down, then pull the switch up to raise the window and continue holding the switch until the window is all the way up and continue holding it for at least 5 seconds after its closed.

This can reset the auto-up/anti-pinch feature on some cars.
