Need to manually roll up window, how??

My window motor went out on my coupe just now. The problem is i cant get into service until monday and i park my car outside. The window is stuck all the way down. Is there a way to manually roll up the window?? thanks

Damn that sucks... I do not think so actually... Mine at times gets stuck for a brief moment and what I do is hold the button for the window in the down position for a slow 2-3 count and then attempt to roll it up again. It usually works for me within 1-2 attempts... Give it a try...

Yeah, definately do... I had one of my motors replaced already and my drivers side acts up every once in a while but it always goes up since I figured out it's personality...

i am close to hitting 60k with my car.
i havent had a problem yet with my window motors.
should i go get them replace before my warranty expires?
or
should i leave it so they won't mess up my door or window?

My driver side window has been acting up lately also. I just periodically try to roll it up with the button and it eventually goes up. I guess it's time to visit the dealer soon.
