Default Failed electic window

Anyone figured out how to raise a defective electric window in a '91? I'm planning to replace the motor assembly but in the mean time I'd like to get the window up. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks - Marv

Don't ask me how I know.....get your fingers down there and pull it up.
Ask a friend to use the window button while you are pulling the window-up.
