Car is 1988 porsche 944turbo. My son is currently on long trip and just called to say his passenger window is down and will not go up. Windows are electric. He's cold and worried about security, etc. Can someone help with advice for temporary fix til he finds repair shop? Many thanks. TIMTUNE

With the key on, hold the window switch in the up position and shut the door. sometimes the motors hit bad spots and shutting the door with switch up will move them enough to get the window up
