HELP! Window won't go up!





     Help!  Tonight a friend of mine rolled down the window in my '89 200TQ
and while it went down fine, it did not come back up.  Switch is getting power.
We figure a bad window regulator or bad window motor.  We pulled the door panel
off the car in a dark parking lot (blind luck as I'd never pulled it off this
car before).  We couldn't figure it out.  It looks like the cable is in place,
and we can hear the motor making noise when you hit the down, but nothing when
you hit up.  I'm thinking half (the one that does up) of the motor is dead, or
something to that effect.  Only problem is....My window is still down!!!!!!!!!

     Any way to just get the window back up?  I don't have to be able to open
it again, but I'd like it closed.  I have a garbage bag over it now and that
doesn't do much for security.  I also park in a parking deck (I don't have a
secure garage) so I need to do something ASAP!  Please respond with any
suggestions or quick fixes.  I'm sure I will need to order a new window
regulator or motor, but for now I just need the window shut!

     Later,
     Dan
