By "the cables have unwound" do you mean the electrical cables that run to the motor?

I'm not familiar wih the power windows, but isn't it just 2 or 3 wires? Shouldn't take you more than a couple tries to figure it out if that's what it is.

Or are there braided steel cables that pull on scissor arms?
