window not going up! help!

hey guys so i rolled down my window today and now it decided to no go back up. it wont roll down either. is there a way to manually roll it back up somehow? i know its not the motor because it was working fine earlier. i suspect that it is the wiring because some of the wirings looked cut up and spliced. probably from previous owner. i need help asap, its almost dark here

Is it just the driver's window, or all 4 windows ?

When you look at the group of 4 window buttons on the driver door's armrest, do you see the little green LED light up on each buttons ?

it was just the driver window. led still showed up. i did some searching and found an old thread saying to use speaker wire and run it from the battery to the window motor. that did the job. my driver window works fine now. goes up and down no problem. weird. well at least its fixed now

I would fuse it at the battery. Wouldn't want any possible fires.
