If you are interested in installing a power sliding rear window in your truck here is the schematic so it will work with no programming whatsoever. 

 

You will need:

power rear window and regulator (regulator may need mounting brackets fabbed if your truck doesn’t have them)

SPDT (single pole, double throw) momentary rocker switch with 3 terminals 

(2) 5 terminal relays

in-line fuse holder

and course some wire, terminal ends, heat shrink, solder

 

Connect the relays together with switch first. 

You can test this before completing the entire install. 

After you complete the relay wiring, you will need to locate the two power window motor wires. They will plug into the last two terminals on the relays. 

Of course, all of this will mount at your desired location. 

Connect the ground wire and 12v positive wire and this will work just like factory without having to program anything.

When I park, the back window is opened a couple inches.  Every time, weather permitting.

I use mine as well and love it! It stops the buffeting when all the windows are down and really moves the air thru the cab.

Yes if the windows are down the back open is great for that. I still wish the entire back would roll down like in Tundras.

Welcome to this forum and thank you for your contribution.  My truck came with a rear slider but I'd probably be installing an aftermarket if it didn't.  It is one of those features that is useful but not high on my my priority list when selecting a truck.  I always assumed an aftermarket installation would be pretty straight forward.  I don't understand  why someone may believe there would be some programming required.

    • Yes that's right, it's the upgrade that includes the overload spring and all that stuff.   Someday when I'm empty and going by a scale I'm going to stop in and get some weight readings.   Exactly  you should have the ability to change individual settings, in in Canada so I'm driving with kph but then I'm stuck with kpa when I want psi lol    
    • You must have that upgraded gvw package which is only available or at least was in 2025 with the diesel engine for the 3/4 ton and that gave the truck physically the larger 12.0 ring gear rear diff and the 3500 rear spring pack. There is a difference in what the diff housing looks like externally as one tell tale and also your truck should have the upper overload spring pack and the frame pads that the pack goes up against.    The pressure the tpms system kicks the alarm in on a stock setting truck, that is a good question and was just from what I recall but I doubt I made any notes on it as I knew for the rear that it was not at all what I was after regardless either. Being that you have a diesel and if running on stock tires the minimum pressure on an empty truck seems to be around 50 psi from hearing of those that have weighted the front axle but the rear axle is very similar in weight to a gas truck and again a near empty truck on the rear could go down to 35 pounds at minimum. However the weigh scale is the proper way to know for sure as a guide.    As to changing the readings on the dash from metric to the US measuring system, oh yes that is done easily but what I was attempting to explain was that I can't pick and choose items I want to have in US and those I still want in the metric system at the same time as its either all or none. For example lets say you drove into Canada and switched your dash over to metric so your speedometer read in km an hour, well then your reading kilopascals on your tpms readout and your wife looks over and says what the hell is that saying in the tpms screen and you say "darned if I know, I think its Chinese" !
    • This is partly why I decided to have switched over to Amsoil SS as a way of hopefully preventing the buildup of the sludge/carbon on the pistons and clogging of the oil control rings and the carbon that would cause the compression rings to stick in their grooves as well as stay cleaner up top of the heads in the valve train in the first place, an oil that has tested better by third party testing over typical shelf oil and also doing my best to run relatively short OCI. However in saying that I don't think there is any way to easily prove the oil I was using prior allowed for a buildup at the OCI I was doing, nor in the other direction to make claims the Amsoil is keeping everything clean either. There really isn't a window into the engine is there to know anything for certain even if oil samples were taken for example that showed still healthy oil being dropped out of the oil pan other than engine tear downs that extensive and expensive testing of oils does to actually visually see what is really going on inside the engine. I wish there was some easy method of seeing what is going on but I don't happen to be aware of that if there is.  
    • My truck is a ¾ ton but my placard also says 80 for the rear tires, I think I might have the upgraded suspension to the 3500 series maybe.   I put my air down to 60 and the light was still on, and there was no way I was putting over 60 psi in the rear empty and not towing because I knew the actual number Toyo gave me and I didn't wanna ruin the center of my tires!   And you actually can change it in the settings from metric or is and it will show kph or mph then when you go into your tire settings it will be either psi or kpa, but it would be nice to just change it directly on the tire psi page
