disconnect the top and manually pull it up
Remove the door panel, find and unplug the window motor. Use jumper wires to supply battery voltage from the door lock switch (or use jumper cables and jumper wires to get power to it from the battery) to the two contacts on the motor. If the window goes the wrong way, switch the wires at the motor. Leave the window motor unplugged so it can't be rolled down accidentally until you are able to properly repair the window.

find the two wires and connect them to a switch
if you are trying to raise or lower the window by by-passing the switch you need to remove the door panel. Locate the wire connector to the window regulator motor. this will be 2 wires, red and green. disconnect the plug-in and use 2 jumper wires from the battery. touch the wires to the motor lead connectors and see which way the regulator moves. alternate the battery wires to achieve the results you want. hope this helps.
you could run 2 wires from the +, and - post on your battery to the switch itself that should get your window up. if that's the case youll have to replace the switch...
Fuse, flasher, switch, bulbs, wires, ignition not on, dead battery,Fuse, flasher, switch, bulbs, wires, ignition not on, dead battery,
to shut the fans on and off by yourself. remove the connector for the wires at the fan. hook a wire from the positive on fan motor to the inside toggle switch, do not hook to switch yet. run a wire from the positive on battery, hook to battery after hooking up switch. hook up the wires to the switch. then the battery. its up to you if you want to install a 15 amp fuse in line from battery to toggle switch.. you can also get the power from the fuse box instead of the battery. this should work for you. if not you may need to ground the other fan wire.
You could try to use "jumper" wires from a 12volt battery if it doesnt move them the motor is bad. If it does then the relay\fuse or switch is bad. Hope this helps you.
Backup light switches are different between automatic and manual transmission bmws. If you have the automatic the switch is under the shifter. Disconnect the battery and remove the shifter boot. Unplug the switch wires and replace the switch and reconnect the wires and battery. If you have a manual transmission the switch is on the passenger side of the transmission above the Allen type filler plug. Disconnect the battery, unplug the wires and unscrew the switch with a 19mm wrench. Screw in the new one an torque it down then reconnect the wires and the battery.
First remove the door panel unplug switch from motor take a 12volt battery, ground battery,take hot wire from battery touch it to terminal on motor directly,motor should start,if it does check master switch on drivers side it would be bad. Also check the actual wiring. The wires can become damaged over time, especially on the driver's side (from that door being opened most often).
If it is "clicking" then it only leaves two things. Either the switch is bad or the motor. If you bypass the switch with jumper wires from a battery you can rule out the motor. Switch polarity to reverse direction. If that works then it is the switch. Hope that helps.
you can take the panel off the door and find the wires going to the power window motor. Take a car battery or charger and hook it up to the wires at the motor. if the window goes up or down then it is probably the switch. If it does nothing reverse the hookup. If it still does nothing it may be your motor. Hooking it up one way will move the window up and reversing it , it will go down.
