Does the rear panel just pop off? I don't want to force anything

1. Remove the tailgate trim panel (see TRIM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION  TAILGATE AREA ).
2. Disconnect the 4P connector (A) from the rear window wiper motor (B).

3. Test the motor by connecting battery power to the wiper motor 4P connector No. 1 terminal and grounding the No. 3 terminal. The motor should run.
4. Connect an analog voltmeter between the No. 4 (+) and No. 2 ( ) terminals,  and run the motor. The voltmeter should indicate 0 V and 4 V or more alternately.
5. If the voltmeter does not indicate as specified,  replace the rear window wiper motor.
