Window Problem HELP QUICK

So I roll my window down today as im out driving, and get home, and the damn thing wont roll up...this is a big problem as I live in an apt complex and have quite a bit of stereo equipment in my car and no place really secure to store the car. I dont think it's the switch because I push it and hear electricity clicking and see the dash lights dimming a little. It has to be the motor cuz the window isnt even moving at all and I dont hear anything coming from it. Is there any way to roll it up manually?? How much will the stealership charge me to replace the motor??

I would not try to do that, if any body saw your car being window down the whole time, then they saw your car had cover,they think

"hummmmmmm........................................ . mabe his window aint rolling up, and all these time he pass by me with speaker sound so sweat.................... let me call a brotha...........................

actually yes, it was from experience.. sorry it took so long to respond, i was in the process of responding and my computer keyboard locked up and wouldnt start working... but yes, i was so worried that i had messed something up and i had already taken the door apart and was checking the switches etc. Asked a local mustang buddy and he said ya, just give it a nice gently tap and it would start working, no problems. But glad we could help save ya the money

Ahhhh, another infamous Mustang window problem. I too, have mastered the fist bump on the doors. I think it's one of those things that gets handed down from one Mustang owner to another, kind of like the Mustang rules list we made here earlier.
