WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Ford Mustang. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- From underneath the door, loosen the front window regulator guide rail lock nut.
- Remove the round reflector located at the bottom of the door trim panel.
- Loosen the lock nut, adjust the jackscrew on the rear window regulator guide rail as necessary and tighten the lock nut.
- From underneath the door, tighten the front window regulator guide rail lock nut.
- Initialize the door window motor. For additional information, refer to Window Motor Initialization .
- Operate the window up and down several times to check for smooth operation and adequate sealing properties (it may be necessary to carry out a water leak test with a hose).
- Install the round reflector.
NOTE:
This procedure should be carried out as a final adjustment to the initial adjustment or can be used as a minor adjustment for the door window glass.
NOTE:
After the initial adjustment is carried out (or if only a minor adjustment is required) the final adjustment, if necessary, can be made. Use the front and rear window regulator guide rail adjustments for inboard/outboard movement of the door window glass.
NOTE:
The rear adjustment is a jackscrew that is exposed by removing the round reflector located at the bottom of the door trim panel.
NOTE:
The front adjustment is a sliding stud and nut located on the bottom of the door.
NOTE:
The clockwise direction of the jackscrew moves the window regulator guide rail inboard (the door window glass tips outboard), resulting in less seal pressure (maximum of 5 revolutions). The counterclockwise direction of the jackscrew moves the window regulator guide rail outboard (the door window glass tips inboard), resulting in more seal pressure (maximum of 10 revolutions).
