Significant buzzing emanating from tailgate when truck is running? What kind of light could this be shedding on the fact that my rear window switch is having no effect and neither is my key on the tailgate

Is it just a rattle, resonate harmonics?

The plug for the tailgate wiring is like behind or under the driver's side tail light. Unplug that if the noise stops it is electric, if it doesn't then it is just vibration.

it’s definitely more than a rattle, sounds like a telephone pole or something. a definite electronic whirring. It literally sounds like the rear window motor is being engaged though inoperable.

I’ll try uncoupling that fuse tonight to find out more
