Replacing power window motor

Replacing power window motor
I have read the instructions by Shoebox on how to replace the motor, but I still have a few questions. I am assuming the window must be up to perform the necessary tasks. My window is currently down, will it manually go up once I have access to it? Although it is not mentioned, I should grease the regulator while I have access to it, using some lithium grease? Any other items I should know? First time attempting this.
Side note. Just got my car back after having a new Strange S60 Rear put in, had about 450 miles on the new rear and was going to have the fluid changed when the window stopped working. But I love the new rear.

Remember that the window motor must overcome any mechanical resistance in the window regulator mechanism (that scissors looking thing ;-) ), so it is a good idea to make sure the guides are clean and well lubricated (lithium or silicone grease will do fine). Also inspect for any broken or loose rollers.
