2nd Generation Power window 'stuck' down

Due to the snapped #1 connecting rod, we're swapping the engine. But, we've made one slight miscalculation. The engine is almost ready to come out, with the drive axles and mounts left. There isn't room to yank the engine while the entire car is in the garage, so the car is going to be moved outside. The problem is that the driver window is down and there's a chance of rain for the next week. The wiring harness has already been disconnected from the engine, so I don't want to apply power to the entire car.
Is there a way to manually put the window up? If not, does anyone have a schematic of the power window circuit so I can figure out where to apply power to make the window go up? The schematic in the back of the haynes manual is pretty poor.
Thanks
Keith

That's what I ended up doing. The motor has two wires going to it, one red and one brown/somethingelse, IIRC. I put fused 12v to the red, ground on the other and the window went up.
