Is it possible to get to the actual motor connections without going via the contoller? You might be able to put 12v across the motor direct if you can.  :-/  :-/

The front windows are 'glued' to a rail that's part of the up/down mechanism. The pop rivets need drilling out to remove the motor anyway, so once that's out of the way you could use a tried & tested brush handle to wedge it up!  ;D ;D ;D
