The window regulators are VERY dangerous. They use a heavy spring to counteract the weight of the glass. If you cannot get the motor to position the glass that also means the motor is not capable of holding the regulator in position. When the regulator is in the full up position the spring is at it's least tension. What I used to do when I worked in the autoglass business was to drill a small hole through the main arm of the reg. and into the main plate of the reg. Now run a #10 or 12 screw through both. This locks it in place. With it locked you can remove the motor. Remember the regulator plate and the arm can be like a guillotine. Be careful.
