You might be able to force it up if you can grab the window or push it up with the door panel off. If you remove the motor, you should be able to push it up and then you could put the motor back in to hold it up until you are ready to fix it.
!!!! If you are working with it inside the door, don't let it fall back down and mash your fingers or arm.

Hold the up switch for whichever window and bang on the door where the motor is located.. It'll jar the motor and it'll sometimes go up.

hammer the teeth to get it to turn while someone pulls up on the window. I don't mean hammer the motor i mean stick like a flathead in the motor and hammer it to turn. this is how I did mine for a temp. fix untill I bought the motor.
