    Recently, my rear sliding window has been opening randomly while driving around. Its like it has a mind of its own. When this happens it won't let me shut the window. The switch seems to stop working.

    After I restart my truck, the switch will work again (most of the time) and I can close the rear sliding window.

    Pretty odd.

    Was thinking it was a bad fuse, loose wiring, or something else.

    Any ideas where to start or what could be causing the problem?

    My first question would be if you have any aftermarket electronics in the truck. That's usually a good place to begin if you do
