'94-96 Tailgate w/o Carpet

Unused carpet holes plugged with pushpins, indicating all '94-96 tailgates have carpet holes.

.

To add a simple self-diagnostic capability, wire a 12V lamp across the safety switch terminals, and mount it in the tailgate shell above the lock cylinder in the inside sill (through a carpet retainer hole if present). If either control switch is activated, and the only thing preventing the glass from moving is the safety switch, the lamp will light and be visible to a person using either switch. If the glass doesn't move AND the lamp doesn't light, the fault is elsewhere.
