my window wont roll up! i tried a new switch, but that didnt work, so the motor must be shot...is there any way i could go about getting the window in the up position until i can afford to get it fixed? this is urgent, i dont want anyone getting into my car, and its starting to rain... thanks for any advice

Mine does the same thing. It sounds ghetto, but just pull up on the window. Grab the glass @ the front and along the back (where it'd hit your B pillar), and yank up on it slowly. It also helps if you have a friend working the switch (assuming yours still works).
Probably is your motor but if yours is a 95 model it may be the external amp.
well my switch is broken also, i took it apart and a few shattered pieces fell out. the "new switch" that i used was my friends, so i dont have it anymore. I need to figure out a way to force it up manually. I tried pulling on it, but it wont move.
i have pulled up a window before cut 2 broom sticks to hold it up worked good for a while
how did you pull it up? did you have to pry on anything, or disconnect anything?
a 12 inch long 2x4 was holding mine up for a week or so. now i finally have a new motor.
im pretty sure its this http://www.courtesyparts.com/Mercha...=PROD&Store_Code=CP&Product_Code=28515-S14AMP
its a common prob. u can prolly find one cheaper, used, etc.
Unbolt the motor from the regulator, raise the glass, bolt the motor back on. It's not rocket science guys.
i had this same problem on my s13 it fucking pissed me off b.c it started to rain and i had to trash bag the window. well yada yada yada i finally figured out the window lock was on. that fucking pissed me off lol.
hmmm i hear ya bro... i gotta fix mine too, i thought it was the window amp... i took it apart and tried resoldering a few pieces... but to no avail still doesnt work, mine was stuck up tho, i raised and lowered it last year by unboldting the motor itself cause i NEED my window down when i drive, lol

keep us updated, I really dont see how the window motor could go bad, but I spose they do.
i'll wake up early and see if i cant fix it before work. thanks for the help
