Is there a way to raise window on car if switch is ok but electric motor does not work?

Here are some options you may want to try to raise the window on your car if the switch is okay but the electric motor is not working:

1. Disconnect and Reconnect the Battery: Sometimes a simple reset can fix the issue. Disconnect the negative battery terminal for a few minutes and then reconnect it. This might fix the communication between the switch and the motor.

2. Clean the Motor and Switch Contacts: Dirt or corrosion on the motor and switch contacts can prevent proper functioning. Use a contact cleaner or a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol to clean the contacts on both the switch and the motor.

3. Check Wiring: Inspect the wiring between the switch and the motor. Look for any loose or damaged wires. Repair or replace any damaged wiring as needed.

4. Check for Obstacles: Make sure there's nothing obstructing the window from moving up, like ice, snow, or debris. Clear any obstructions from the window's path.

5. Use the Override Mechanism: Some cars have a manual override mechanism that can raise the window in the event of a motor failure. Check your car's manual to see if there is an override mechanism and how to access it.

6. Seek Professional Help: If none of these steps work, it might be best to consult a professional mechanic or auto electrician. They can diagnose the exact issue and repair the problem accordingly.
