So my window doesnt want to roll back up

ByPopularDemand · August 19th, 2007, 12:52 PM

Yrah I rolled it down, it sounded and moved fine, and now it will not come back up. The switch makes a faint click if I push the down button, but there is no nothing when I try to roll it up. The other three windows work fine. Any Ideas what to do?

... its probably something with the motor or maybe it jumped the track... you might wanna see if you can take the door panel of and see if its off the tracks or something... if not that then see if their is a blown fuse bad relay or if your switch is bad

How would I check a fuse relay?

02stang02 · August 19th, 2007, 03:14 PM

mine did this yesterday...so i took it to my uncle, whos a mechanic, and all he did was hit the bottom of the door while holding the switch up and it went up and i works fine now. i know it sounds wierd but it works perfectly fine now..haha

emgjsdk1 · August 19th, 2007, 03:31 PM

no way man dont hit your door
i took my 02 3.8L to barton ford locally and the mechanic told me that this is a common problem with mustangs all you have to do is get in the car and slam the door (with some force ya no) trust me it will work, if it dosent work the first time try it again

ByPopularDemand · August 19th, 2007, 03:47 PM

I tried hitting it, and slamming the door...so far neither has worked

ass

i say you still look at it from the inside ... this means its just haveing track problems... thats all

ByPopularDemand · August 19th, 2007, 06:34 PM

Yeah ill tear it apart at home when I get a chance...I hate weekends they are too busy

GatoStang · August 20th, 2007, 07:05 PM

Just like 02stang said hold the up buttong than hit it really hard where the motor is and it should work. this happened to me then i tried that method and my window is fine now...

it just needs some encouragement =)

ByPopularDemand · August 20th, 2007, 07:07 PM

Yeah so its off track as all hell...how do I get to it

CrappyV6 · June 17th, 2010, 09:22 AM

I bought my first mustang in 2006. I didn't realize they were such pieces of shit. Don't get me wrong, I love my car and take excellent care of it but since the warranty has run out, there seems to be a new problem every day I have to deal with. The Day I bought it, I got in it with the salesman and he pointed out how the windows roll down about 1/8 of an inch when you open the door and when you close it, they roll back up..... I knew that this was a feature that would be going out shortly after the warranty. I was partly right, the problem has moved to both windows but it's a short, some days the drivers side window will do it and other days it's the passenger window. Oh, and the 6-disc changer likes to spin aimlessly all night, running down your battery.

your window problem is easy to fix. turn the key to on. roll the window all the way down while holding the button down (dont do the one touch crap.) hold it there for five seconds, then roll it up while holding and hold for 5 seconds.

as for the cd changer. that shit happens, but who still uses cds?

Mr. Red Pony · June 17th, 2010, 12:44 PM

My drivers side window does that occasionally. They told me that after a while the teeth will line up weird and seize it up. I have a reckneck way of getting it back up though. While holding the switch up, hit the door right in the center. IF it is your door windows.

cubestang04 · June 17th, 2010, 01:01 PM

ok, this happend to me a few weeks ago, it went down, and when i tryed making it go back up, i didnt. just buy a new switch, its 30 bucks tho at any ford dealership. u can pop the switch out, and show them so they know what ur talking about.

FLMustang02 · June 17th, 2010, 01:12 PM

Mine is bound to just stop and never come back up...im just waiting for that to happen lol, its definately either the window motor or the regulator...

Mr. Red Pony · June 17th, 2010, 03:00 PM

if it falls down and you just drive it for a while it will break loose...
