Newbie with window problem.. =)

[6Cat]

Newbie needs help.. driver's side window will not roll back up. Push button and all you get is the intial "click" like it's going to but NOTHING... Read all over here and got some ideas..but is there anyway to "manually" roll the window up? Just want the thing up for now, it's hot and chance of rain. 98 f-150. Thnx in advance.

Easest way is to jump a power wire and a ground wire directly to the window motor one way is down and the opposite is up, just reverses the polarity of the motor. hope this helps

Thanks so much...but at the sake of sounding like an idiot, where am I jumping the power wire from? I'm using my blonde allotment for this one....

You can jump from any 12v source like the battery, power point etc.... and the ground to any non painted metal you can find. just be carefull not to let the two touch wires touch.
