87 RX window issues

Featured Replies

My passenger window on the RX won't roll back up. I've tried to bypass the switch, and nothing from the motor. Not even a click.

 

I am fairly sure the motor finally gave up. Been slow for years.

 

What I need to know is if there is a way to manually get the window back up, and stay up without taking out the frame bolts?

Sure is getting cold up here in the mountains. Help a brotha out?

Hi, if you unplugged the motor from inside the door wiring harness and used 12v directly to the motor connector , it should go , if not the motor is bad. i just had the same thing on my xt, after a lot of trial and error i had to put in another motor assembly. as far as getting the window up i don't think any way other than to unbolt it and slide it up, maybe able to wedge it in the up position some way till you get another motor assy.
