    How to close a power window in open position?
    '93 Integra - p/s window is in open position. I am waiting for a new Master Switch for the driver's side because I read that this was common fault w/problems. If this doesn't work, anyone help w/how to jump the motor to close the window? Also, how can I check if motor has gone south on me w/o having to tear the thing apart? Thanks!:confused:

    Got one of those little jumper boxes? Use it as a 12V source to apply power and ground right at the motor connector. Flip it both ways to test up/down motion. You'll at least have to pull the panel off first, but that'll give a chance to see if the regulator is all twisted or something mechanical.

    Thanks Kitch. Is it safe to assume that the jumper box you refer to is the one used to help you start your car from a dead battery? Just want to make sure we're on the same page before I end up being that guy in the Nitro commercial.

    Yes, that's it. It's more safe than trying to find power from another source of your vehicle and possibly causing other problems. :eek:
