Answer

Hi XXXXXXXXX,

There is no way to manually roll them up because the regulator is geared to the motor and it won't move. You could try removing the door panel and jump the window motor to see if you could get it to go up. You could also remove the motor, slide the window up and reinstall the motor. Or you could remove the motor and put a piece of wood in the door to hold the window up. That's about it.

Please ACCEPT if this helped.

Thanks,
Vinny
