Pulled out motor and harness, forgot to roll window up =]

Today I pulled out my motor, tranny, and harness. Afterwards when pulling the car out and getting ready to cover it I realized that we left the drivers side window up. I always forget the little things..

So, Is there a way to power up the window motor to get the window back up? Applying power where the battery used to be doesn't seem to work, no dash lights, interior lights, or power to the door.

Thanks,

David

find out which wire in the door is the power for the motor and hook it up to the battery.

use the cigarette lighter port with a jumpbox or battery, just plug a CL plug in and connect the other ends (bare wire) to a battery or jumpbox for power to your interior acc. hope this helps.

Thanks for the help guys.. I will give some of those suggestions a try after I get off work.. I knew something was bound to happen, it went way too easy. 4 hours from start to putting the subframe back in the car so we could move it around.. Not bad for the first time I have ever pulled a motor.
