Default lft window problems

I have a 2005 and the cable on my driver's window came undone . Motor worked fine. Unable to buy a regulator without a motor. So when it came in I installed it and it just so happened when I installed it the window was about four inches up from the top of the door. I pushed the down button and released it immediately and the window went all the way down the four inches continuous. That tells me that the switch and the motor are correct. When I selected raise the window and released it the window only come up for that split second and then stopped. Then I held it up like you have two on the 2005 'cause it's not automatic it only come back up to the starting point of about four to five inches and that's all it will do will go up and down 4 to 5 inches. How do I fix this?

Fred
