Do you mean other then taking the door apart, raising it manually and putting it all back together again?

Remove your door panel and apply 12volts directly to the motor to see if it turns. If so and it's going the wrong way, simply switch the polarity (apply the postive to the other terminial) and make it go up.

If the motor does not turn with 12volts applied to it, than your motor is bad. You can simply disconnect the motor from the track, manually push window up, and than reconnect motor to track to keep it in that position.

You have tried rolling it up from both the door itself and the drivers door correct? Does the other door on that side work or not?

Yeha the Front window on the passanger side works, but the rear one is the one that isnt.

Here is a picture of the front. The rear should be very similar. Where the motor attaches to the track you'll see 3 bolts. Undo those bolts and the motor should pull away enough to move it.

This is all speculation, but it should be VERY similar to the front.

if they're not bolts, then they'll be rivets, drill em' out and have some new bolts ready for the new motor.
