Was wondering if this is normal or not. My driver’s side window does not recess into the door all the way when putting it down. I.e. you can still see about an 1/8 of an inch or so. Not a big deal but my passenger side window goes down out of sight. I have used the alignment procedure in the manual to recalibrate them but no luck. They seal tight when they are all the way up. Again, not really a problem just wondered if it is worth having the dealer rip the door panel off.

 

Mine is the same way, I think that's just the way it is.

 

Mine is similar, however my passenger window was up about 1/4" they were able to adjust it. So now they're both about 1/8" which is fine as it's actually below the external plastic/rubber moulding.

 

There is a thread on this issue. You have to recalibrate the window. Do a search for it and you will find the exact instructions

 

all I did was disc. the battery for an hour and reconnect. It worked fine after that..........

 

Unfortunately, I used the instructions in the manual, I'll search in the tread again but I believe all I have found is what is already in the manual. If you have a specific link that says otherwise would you post, it would be greatly appreciated.

 

If it closes and seals fine, then its probably just a hair out of adjustment mechanically. Just take it to the dealer, should be under warranty.

 

Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but here's some relevant pdf files from the workshop manual.

Personally, I'd attempt to fix it myself before wasting a day at the dealer and taking a chance on having those guys break something (or make things worse).

 

I've had the same problem. It's just the nature of the beast. Sometimes I will have a window roll down completely out of site, and another time it may just show a sliver of the top edge of glass. I have had it in....calibrated myself....and anything else I can think of. According to the dealership, they say all calibrations are fine. Windows seal fine and have the right drop when I open the door.

 

Re-initilization has always been enough to reset my windows, but this procedure takes it a step further.

FORD: 2005-2007 Mustang

ISSUE:
Some 2005-2007 Mustang vehicles may exhibit issues with the functional power window features including one touch up, short drop, and bounce back.

ACTION:
Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition if the root
cause is incorrect or no window initialization of the Smart Window Motor.

SERVICE PROCEDURE

Perform a de-initialization procedure of the smart motor / side window glass, followed by re-initialization procedure.

NOTE: WINDOW RE-INITIALIZATION MUST BE PERFORMED WITH THE DOORS CLOSED.

NOTE: ON CONVERTIBLES, WINDOWS COULD BOUNCE BACK IF THE SIDE GLASS IS OUT OF ADJUSTMENT. REFER TO THE WORKSHOP MANUAL (WSM), SECTION 501-11.

NOTE: CHECK TO MAKE SURE THAT THE DOOR SEAL OR MIRROR SEAL IS NOT ROLLED OVER OR BINDING. ALSO, THAT THERE IS NO OBSTRUCTION IN GLASS SEALING AREA AND THE GLASS FIT AND/OR REGULATOR MECHANICAL FASTENING IS NOT LOOSE.

DE-INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE
De-initialization (un-learning) of the smart window motor clears the
memory of the module and shuts off the One-Touch UP, Bounce Back and Short Drop functions.
The smart window motors can be de-initialized in two (2) different ways:
Disconnect the battery cable from the battery WHILE THE WINDOW IS MOVING.
Remove the window motor fuse from the Power Distribution Box WHILE THE WINDOW IS MOVING.
After performing one of the above procedures, the smart motor must be re-initialized, see Initialization Procedure.

INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE
INITIALIZATION MUST BE PERFORMED WITH THE DOOR CLOSED! (For convertibles, top and the quarter glass must be in the up / closed position.)
From the window switch, perform the following steps without stopping:
Operate the window UP and stall for 2 seconds. (Hold The Switch)
Operate the window DOWN and stall for 2 seconds. (Hold The Switch)
The smart window motor will be initialized and one-touch-UP and Short Drop will be operational.
Cycle the window glass an additional five (5) times to set the window
"Soft Stop" for the down position.

TIP - VOLTAGE RANGE OF OPERATION: 9-16 VOLTS (AT THE MOTOR)
The smart motor will ONLY function in the 9-16 volt range; if the voltage at the smart motor drops below 9 volts, the window may not function properly or prematurely stop moving.
If the voltage drops below 9 volts while the motor is moving, the motor will become de-initialized (one-touch UP and Short Drop will be
inoperable).
If the motor becomes de-initialized due to low voltage, see initialization procedure for instruction.

 

Well on both sides I can see just a smidge of the glass from the inside, but not the outside. Never thought anything about it.
