I just typed out a beautiful reply till I just caught you said manual

I haven't worked on this type specifically, but done my share of others.

I'd check to see of the window track is mis alligned, there is not much for the cables to bind on, but the track itself can get caught up easily. Once you have the door panel off, start moving things back and forth you should be able to see the track mis-alignment.

Of course it's a great time to lube the cable while your at it.

i think manual mechanical and electric are the same only thing different is the electric switch. It's not the guides, the cables have come off and are tangled up.When the good weather comes i will have an another attempt of sorting it out.
