How to roll up a window from my car with a dead battery?

So we will start our article with the technique to allow you to close your car with no power and more precisely the window of this one. Whether your battery is empty, or you have removed the battery, you will not have access to the electric controls of your vehicle, and therefore no longer have the possibility to close the electric windows. Unfortunately you don’t have many solutions to allow you to close them, indeed, closing the electric window of a vehicle without power is impossible , without energy you don’t have the possibility to operate the mechanisms of your window lifter, and even if you remove the trim of your door and try to reassemble the window manually you risk to break the motor of the window lifter of your car. If, on the other hand, the window of your vehicle is blocked while you have battery power, please refer to this guide to find a solution to your problem. Here are the only two solutions that we can recommend, although they are quite logical:

  • Buy a new battery for your car and replace it , which will re-power all the electrical organs and thus your window lifter mechanisms. If you are looking to disconnect the battery from your car, do not hesitate to consult our guide to perform this operation.
  • Find a vehicle that has battery power and connect your two batteries with cables to recharge the battery and allow you to close the windows of your car
