Rip apart the door panel and push it up.

Hmm. Try pushing up on the switch while pushing up on the window. That might release the locking mechinism, it worked for me on a GM once.

well ive worked on it for like 2 hours with not luck and now its just worse cause the window wont stay in one position aswell, how the hell do u get that thing to move? i took off the whole deal and tried just pulling the damn window out but it wont come out, i used oil thinking that might help but nope no luck, Ive taken out the other window before and replaced it so i know u gotta take it out slowly at a angle and all that, any help would be fine i just want my damn window all the way up :( and yes the motor is completely dead so the switch does nothing

Sometimes the control unit for the driver's window fails. Did you try testing the motor? It might at least get the window up! It's really easy, just apply 12volts to the RED/YEL and RED/BLU wires to the motor, and it either goes up or down, (don't know which way it goes:confused: ). Then switch the positive and ground (reverse the polarity) and the motor goes the other way, if the motor itself is ok. Here's the test from the manual:

also it could be the regulator
