Good advice there, even if you don’t touch the switch it’s always trying to return to the resting home position

I'm pretty sure that's the problem!!

Pull the fuse until you replace the motor. Will stop the drain. Have done my 08 twice since I've owned it 8 years.

Mine wasn't even the motor. The shaft mechanism going through the back window stiffened up in the bearing to the point where the motor couldn't turn it. Take it apart and grease or just spray lube and work it back and forth by hand until it moves freely.

Same with mine, replaced the wiper transmission.

I bought it about 10 years ago and its the best thing I've ever done. I'd never take my money back. its a 30x40 wood framed shop with 3 bay doors.

Awesome

How much did that cost you?

Rear hatch stripped to bare metal and repainted! I also tinted the taillights and shaved the badges.
