The problem with many of them is that they are not adjusted properly and/or the window seal has lost its resilience (spring-y-ness). If the latch doesn't pull the window into the seal, compressing it, and/or the seal doesn't compress & rebound, when the latch is opened, the window won't be pulled from the latch which could result in it remaining partially latched.

budy's 94 works great, probably better then using the handle lol.

my 01 works good too but if I push it too hard the button sticks in, then when i start the truck it pops back open haha(have a replacement just too lazy to replace)

I've got a 91 myself, and it works. I've had to replace the pieces to hold the glass up of course though.

Default black tailgate button

Hello
I am new to this forum, I own a 2000 Blazerzr2 3.4L 4x4 2 door. The black Tailgate button went out a year ago, the inside rear hatch button works fine it opens the glass hatch, the button on the outside of the tailgate does not open the glass hatch it does nothing. Is the problem in the button itself or is it a connector or something like that? I would like to get it working and save some money by fixing it myself. If anyone knows the problem and knows how to fix the button I would really appreciate the help.
