• Q: How to Initialize the Front Door Power Window Motor on 2005 Ford Mustang?

  A: Before operating the front door window motor inspect the system clearance and check that every component such as the window glass and regulator as well as motor and glass top run are correctly installed and tightened per the specifications. The process of initialization must occur whenever the motor needs replacement or after new window regulators or glass are installed or when lubrication happens to the window system. A fresh front window motor will begin its operation as proportional up/down movement until receiving an initialization command. A diagnostic tool should be used for initialization whenever the one-touch up function fails to work after three attempts with the window control switch particularly with instances of false bounce-back. When the door is secured shut use the window control switch at its second detent to activate the UP function until the window reaches the glass top run followed by using the DOWN function to reach the frame bottom. The correct operation can be verified through tests of the one-touch down and one-touch up functions. When using diagnostic tools for initialization you should verify there are no physical obstacles and bounce-back functions are switched off. Set the front window to perform a calibration test that will open from header seals to full position before testing the one-touch features.
