Default Need quick answer! Back Window Problem

Hi, I have an 87 blazer with power windows, including the back.

I've had the motor rebuilt and a new cable installed not long ago and it's been working great.

This morning I pulled the window down to put some stuff in the truck, after that I tried to pull it up but all I could hear is the motor spinning.

After removing the cover I discovered that the cable has been disconnected/broken from the regulator.

My question is, how can I get the window to go up manually so I can take a look at what the problem is?

This is urgent because it's going to rain soon and my back windows is down!!!


Thanks for any help.

Is there anything that you can hook a drill up to on the cable? You can use a drill to raise the window.

It actually disconnected on the other side so I had to remove the glass to reconnect the cable.

Ah. Yeah, if it breaks off the regulator, you have to unbolt the window and slide it up.
