It could be a problem with the wiring in the tailgate window itself. Particularly on earlier C5's it was known problem, mine had it replaced twice under warranty. Fingers crossed the third one has been OK !

If you look on the Yahoo site at http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/C5-L/ and go to the files section, you'll find a very good article covering the repair of the rear window.
