You will have to remove the window from the motor. Haven't had to do it to a mustang, but there should be either rivets or a clip holding it.

Thanks for the quick reply, I read a few more threads that popped up on google and saw a guy mention to just hit the bottom of the door near where the motor is. We I'll be damned if that didn't work

Have you tried hitting the inside of the door. I know on my 01 gt this happened and I just used my fist and pounded on it and it finally grabbed long enough to roll up the window. Never rolled it back down till it was fixed.

With a big power stick car, the car is much more unsettled going down the track making it more of a challenge to ET well. A well running auto car is nothing more than just point and shoot. Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.

yeah that worked. But when you say "until it was fixed" what exactly was the cause if your problem?

On mine it was the window motor itself. Replaced it and never had an issue again.
