    window stuck down. helps!

    i really dont like starting threads, but my car is a 1990 and it doesnt have the normal manual crank just in case my window motor goes out. so my question to you guys is: how the hell do i get this window up?





    TIA

    Is the window motor bad? If so you might need to disconnect the motor from the regulator and lift the window by hand.

    If the motor is still good then put power and ground to the connector.

      Disconnect the motor. Take the wires and hook it up to a battery from a drill and pos or neg doesn't matter. If it goes down with pos touching a certain wire than switch the wires touching the battery.

      Good luck,
