The same thing happened to my '04 XUV. Discovered broken white nylon/plastic that retains the end of the lift cable. Ordered a new lift gate motor/mechanism assembly ($250) online and replaced it myself. Be sure to buy a new limit switch ($13) also. I did not and regretted it because you must remove the old limit switch from the old motor assembly so you can re-assemble it to the new motor assembly. While removing the old switch from the old assembly, I broke it. Had to then order a new switch. The cost to ship the switch separately was more than the switch. The whole thing did not really take that long and was surprisingly easy. It works great now.

My 2004 GMC Envoy SUV midgate window won't go up!! any ideas??? The switch is okay!!

Relay maybe .Doesn't look like a relay is involved for window . Looking at a wiring diagram an using a volt meter to test electrical circuit would be the way to find the problem . Do you know how to test automotive electrical circuits ? How to read a wiring diagram ?
Midgate Components
The midgate consists of the following components:
• Midgate window switch
• Midgate latch release switch
• Midgate window regulator
• Left midgate latch
• Right midgate latch
• Midgate latch relay
• Midgate 25-amp window regulator circuit breaker
• Midgate 15-amp latch relay circuit breaker

Midgate Window Control
The midgate window is controlled by the following:
• Midgate window switch
• Midgate 25-amp window regulator circuit breaker

Reading a little more from service repair manual i do see a relay , it's part of the window motor assembly . Could possibly be the window regulator . You need to take midgate panel off an look inside . Test electric to the motor while in then .
Midgate Window Operation
When the midgate window switch is activated to Up, battery voltage is supplied to the coil of the midgate window up relay in the window motor, energizing the relay. When the window up relay is energized, the window is driven in the Up direction.
When the midgate window switch is activated to Down, battery voltage is supplied to the coil of the midgate window down relay in the window motor, energizing the relay. When the window down relay is energized, the window is driven in the Down direction.

Midgate closed window up dash says midgate ajar. Its fully closed

Hello Anonymous,

These system are controlled by an electronic module that should
send a fault code to the BCM (Body Control Module) and accessed via the DLC (Diagnostic/Data Link Connector) if a fault is present.

Some Auto parts stores will connect a OBDII scanner to your vehicle for free and provide you with a starting point should any fault codes be present. Fault code scanning is always the first step in trouble shooting a problem.

How to fix my rear tailgate window

check the fuse/relay. if it is neither of these check the switch with a multimeter. If you can hear the motor trying to move the glass when you try the switch it may be the regulator needs attention. It may be the motor needs to be replaced.

check fuse and relay along with the switch first then the regulator and motor afterwards. Replacing the small electronics is obviously easier than having to open up the tailgate to check the mechanics of the winedow.

Glass divider between passenger and truck bed does not roll up

I assume you have an XUV. Same thing happened to me a few months back. If the glass isn't broken ( and you would have heard it if it did), its the "midgate window regulator" that has failed. I recently installed one myself and it's not terribly difficult [couple of hours x 2 nights by myself - easier with another pair of hands] if you are somewhat mechanically inclined and have a basic tool set. Here's a start on finding the part: https://www.google.com/#q=envoy%20xuv%20midgate%20regulator Google : "envoy xuv midgate regulator installation" and you'll be able to see a few examples.

Gmc envoy 04, the gear shift slides up and down but the gear did not engage. another word, the xuv won't move

The shift cable probably has broken, usually the ring at the end breaks. Below is a diagram that shows the cable (it is item #7)

04 GMC ENVOY XU While rolling up the window on my midgate I heard

the plastic part of the window regulator has broken I think on that year the motor and regulator come as a one piece replacement unit and are fairly easy to install,if you remove the inner panel you should be able to see the broken piece when you try to cycle the window.Good luck
