Motor on my automatic windows seems to have broken, and now my window is stuck open a bit. Tiny bit but still an issue. Anyone got any tips for fixing it? Even if it's just getting it back fully closed.

Also it's an older Honda CRV.

You can pull it up manually. Open the door and push upward on both sides of the window with all your might. You may want to enlist assistance to take one side of it. I used to do this with my friend's 1992 Buick Regal all the time.

if you have spare suction cups for some reason they're helpful for doing this

Dual toilet plungers also work, but clean them first… My dad had a mid 70s Silverado with three on the tree, high beams on the floor, and a toilet plunger ring on the driver’s side window.
