How do you repair a passenger window that will not roll up on a 1988 Buick LeSabre?
Hey Steve= the most common problem is for a roller in the linkage to break. It is a big job and someone who knowa how, to repair it. Call your local auto trim shop. GoodluckJoe I had a rear window that did this. I removed the window motor. Now it's a manual window; I have to use my hands to pull it down and lift it up. I don't have to worry about locking my keys in my car although it will set off the car alarm if you roll it down with the car locked; you have to put your key in the ignition to stop the alarm. Of well.
How do you keep up a car window up until you can get it fixed?
your can try to tape the window up, you can also try to shim the window by placing a piece of cardboard between the window and the door, or you can disassemble the inside of the door and block the window up with a piece of wood.
How much would it cost to fix the heat shield on your car?

How do you fix a stuck car window?
if the motor in the door isn't working try a rubber hammer at the bottom of the door where the motor is located, some times a jolt will get it working, if that don't do it check for power , if there is power then you will have to replace the motor. A lot of the time it is not the motor / window regulator itself but the little plastic regulator guide clips that break. I'd check this first because they are like $6 compared to over $100 for the full regulator motor. It is hard to find them for sale individually so I included some sources in the related links.
