I had this same exact issue a few weeks ago on my Jeep liberty 2002 limited v6 engine I personally took the jeep to my mechanic and sit and watched him check my car a million different ways. He then advised me that i needed a new latch since it would work well when he hit the manual release he felt the pieces was defaulted....However the day i got the part back and he replaced it the issue did not go away....After about and hour working and moving around stuff on my back gate and door he discovered the answer. Which is the wires in the door where extremely long and the one to the to the latch was being cut off all he had to do was replace the wires. So if you are having this problem have your person check the wires in the door where the door is attached to the main part of the car.

Why won't my tailgate window close It just happened to other day it is a jeep liberty sport 2002.?

Not a hundred percent sure, but it is likely that your door latch didn't unlatch the window when it opened, thus not allowing the window to re-latch when it closes. Check the latch and make sure that it is opening the window latch when you open the door. I have a 2006 liberty that's what happened on mine. Not sure if the 2002 is the same as the 2006, but its a good start

Why wont your rear window latch close on your jeep liberty?

Just bought a 2005 Jeep Liberty Sport. The rear window will not latch. We were told to press on the right side of the plastic on the rear window. I tried it, my son and husband we cannot close the window and my hand hurts. The dealer we bought it from said that's how they are. I find it hard to believe we have to slam it thousands of times. What can we do. There is definitely a malfunction with the latch or the switch on the release handle.


Rear access open stays on. So that keeps the inside lights on..then runs battery down on 2004 Yukon XL?

door ajar switch/switches are no good, in the glass latch or tailgate latch, or both. your rear wiper does'nt work either because of this. the switches cannot be purchased seperately, you have to buy the latches as they are integral. have 1 at my shop now, glass latch assm. is 334.37, & tailgate latches are 94.75 ea. hope this helps.

2002 Jeep Liberty Tailgate Latch won't open?

Hi, I can only relate to what I found on my Jeep Liberty 2005. If you remove the plastic cover on the tailgate you can gain access to the latch assy. There is a linkage rod that attaches from the gate handle to the latch assy. On the latch assy. the rod attaches to a metal arm coming from the latch. There are actually 2 arms that the linkage arm is supposed to move, the one the linkage arm is directly attached to that activates the glass solenoid, and a second arm that attaches to the first arm through a slot in the first arm by a screw. On my Jeep the screw fell out. There is a small square access hole that is directly in line with this screw. Because the first arm has to move 1/8" to activate the solenoid before opening the latch, I used a countersunk screw to allow the arms to move independently.

1995 ford bronco tailgate window wiring?

From the fuse panel, hot in accy or run, comes a light blue with black wire, to the tailgate window switch in the dash. From this switch, two black wires go to ground, and a pink with light green and a pink with light blue wire go forward to the tailgate key switch. From the fuse panel, hot at all times, comes a black with white wire, also to the tailgate key switch. From the tailgate key switch comes a yellow with red wire directly to the tailgate window motor. Also from the tailgate key switch comes a tan with black wire, to a tailgate latch switch, and from there a red with yellow wire to the tailgate window motor. That latch switch functions to keep the window motor from working if the gate is not completely closed, and from what I hear, with wear and tear over time, begins to malfunction just from getting out of reach. If your window quit working, start there. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain how those switches work together in the same circuit without a drawing, so I must recommend the website of helmdirect, for the electrical and troubleshooting manual I'm referring to, which I bought there, for the same vehicle. Best $25 I've spent.


How do you replace the tailgate latch on a 1998 Toyota Sienna?

You need to order the part(s) first, which you can do at your local Toyota dealership or at an auto parts store. Then, you simply disassemble the tailgate, remove the defective latch component, and put in the new part, and then reassemble the tailgate.
