rear window stuck down Help!

[Shamrock84]

hey guys,
rear window stuck (83k5) in down position -the cable fell out of the regulator. any way to manually raise the window so i can reinsert the cable in the regulator? and how can i keep it there? it always slides out of the reg. its a new cable from lmc. found something in search about the gear on top left hand side and 3 bolts to remove to raise manualy but it didnt go into details.
any help appreciated!

not sure how 2 raise it 2 put cable back in but my cable fell out the other day with the window down and i took the access panel off and stuck the cable back n the motor and zip tied it to another cabe/rod that was next to the motor...seems to work fine...

might have to disassemble the window reg, not sure how to do it with the window down. Sounds like a PITA. I wonder with the cable out of the reg side if a little pressure on the window would move the regulator.

Ok got it! in case anyone finds themselves in same situation i used a block of wood to hold up the window and used two sticks l;ike electricians fish sticks to chopstick the cable and slide it in the reg. and used some cable clamps with 3m tape on the back and zip ties to hold the cable where it needs to be, thanks
