Toyota FJ Cruiser Forum

Hello all,
I have a 2007 FJ, and there is a ticking sound coming from behind the spare tire, where the rear wiper base is located. It sounds electrical in nature, and will tick 6 times, pause then 6 more times, pause, etc...

The wipers still work, as does the washer. Any hints?

Thanks in advance.

only a few things I can think of back there that would do that, the door lock, the window latch or the wiper motor. Try to sit back there when it is making the noise and figure out what it is. Or take the trim panel off to get a really good listen.
