2 screws at bottom of lift gate, remove and use plastic blade or screw driver to pop the back panel off. Watch out for the 2 clips that hold the wires for the lights in the panel. remove clips and unplug lights you should have access to the wiper motor.

Most panels are held in place with clips attached to the underside of the panel. There may be screws as well attached to any handles used to lower the gate. If all screws are removed, pull on panel and the clips will release

2004 gmc envoy window won't go up rear wiper obstruction

I know this question is old, but I am responding so others with the same problem can see. I wired the Rear Window Motor Park Signal wire and the Rear Window Motor Speed Signal wire together and it completely bypassed the rear wiper motor. Now the window goes up and down. This doesn't fix the rear wiper motor, but you will be able to have access to it now that the window is out of the way

I made and album to show.
