Default Need Help! Window stuck!

I have had problems getting my window to go up. Recently I took off the door panel and switched the motor wires to get it to go up, the switch only works in down position. Today I accidentally rested my arm on the window switch making it go down. I need to drive it to school tomorrow but the window is stuck. Is there any way to "hotwire" the connection where the window switch connects in the center console/dash. If so how? This is just temporary to get me to school. I have ordered a new switch but it won't be here for a couple of days.

Thanks,

Kyle

If you arn't willing to pull the door pannel to do it tonight, the next best and easiest way is to change switch with other side. you can easily get to were the switch plugs into the main harness along the center console by removing the side panels. You just unplug the bad switch at the harness then move the harness from good switch over to were bad one was pluged in. If you don't have enough slack in the lead, you can always make up a temp set of jumpers to lengthen you to reach and get the window up.

Thanks, why didn't I think of that? Worked great , the two plugs were right next to each other on the passenger side.
