Subject:      Automatic window problem in '89 Vanagon . . .

Help!  My passenger-side window is down and can't get up.  I've tried
taking the motor out (following instructions in Bentley), but there is
no way it's gonna come out and I can't raise the window manually with
the motor in place.  Does anyone know how to 'hot wire' the motor,
bypassing the switch.  I just want to get the window closed so I can
take some time to consider my options.  Thanks in advance for any
advice you can offer.

P.S.  This van just made a 4000 mile round-trip from Boston to
St.John's NFLND without a problem; once home, the exhaust system self-
destructs, it starts leaking oil like a Texas blow-out and the window
stops working.  What next?
