Try to get some pliers on them and pull it up while someone pushes the up button. If this works yet is sluggish motor culprit. Whatever you do make sure to lock the regulator gear (your going to need a drill for much of this) on the changeout.
Windows down are a problem if you have bad weather, bums, teenagers ect ect. If those factors are present you need a window pronto. This is a pretty PITA project. Look for a local mechanic to do it. DEALERS rape and pillage. If times on your side and you got a indoor garage, then shop for a new one online (sry I am new and not sure of the policy here with refers to webdealers, but there are alot of places that will have this)

It's not hard to replace yourself, get one with a lifetime warranty locally. I used http://shbox.com/page/windowmotor.html

Just had my motor go out on my driver side. I got a window motor for like 15 on ebay with lifetime warranty and took me about hour and half to replace. The window motor works perfect.
Good advice on the pliers, couldn't get mine to go up either.

thanks guys for all the advice i managed to pull the window up with my hands and the motor struggled a bit im not to worried about it now that its up but i will be replacing the motor soon the switch doesnt go up or down but can still control the passenger window but that one rolls up and down slow too so its probably on its way out as well. so i will be replacing 2 motors. right.
