Getting a Power Window back up?
Looking for a temporary Fix
The FC I just bought had a finicky Passenger power window, and I accidentally bumped the window switch down. And while it was working before (ever so slowly though) Now the window refuses to go back up.
Is there a way to just get the window back up without replacing parts or removing the glass? I just want it fully back up, just not working.
Any help is appreciated.

Take the door card off,disconnect the switch and supply 12 volts directly to the Motor Connector.
The motor just uses a Reverse polarity to go up and down..so either you put the 12 volts onto the 2 pin connector one way and it will go up OR hook the 12 volts up the other way.(reverse the feed of your 12 volts to that connector)
*another thing is that the DR side has a safety for the passenger window (it locks it..window lock) so try to see if that is "unlatched" before you start tearing into things.
