Switch, Motor Fuse or wiring....
Check the fuses first...
Then test the wiring at the motor in the back, That will tell you the wires, fuses, and switch are good....
Then i would replace the motor..
ALSO is there an aftermarket radio in the truck ?? Then i would say check the plug on the back of the switch and fuses first..

Here are the steps from the Shop manual
If this does not reset it.. you have to remove the motor and use a Allen head to turn the mech. to roll up the window. then replace the motor so it wont fall back down..
1: Start with the ignition key in the OFF position
2: turn the ignition Key to the ON position
3: Press the rear glass control switch vent button 6 times
4: Turn the ignition key to the OFF position
5: Press the rear glass control switch vent button 6 more times
6: turn the ignition to the ON position. at this point the rear window will move up and down approximatley 20mm (0.8 in). this movement signifies that the rear window glass motor has entered into the initialization mode
7: NOTE: the rear window glass control switch must be held in the UP or DOWN position until the window glass stops moving. failure to hold the switch will end the initialization operation. then the initialization will have to be re-started.
Hold the rear window glass control switch in the full UP position until the rear window glass stops in the full up posistion

This needs to be done anytime the motor or switch is disconnected.
here are the pages from the manual for checking the rear window they are located in my Library.
