Default 1989 mustang LX convertible

advice needed on rear power window, motor working, only incrementally going up, won't go to top...sounds stripped...think it is just a gear...any guidance on removing side panel and gear/motor appreciated. Also, anyone ever have to fix console ash tray cover, my cover seems disconnected from the spring loaded hinge...probably need an exploded diagram, does the whole console have to come out?

Thanks

You probably need to take the motor apart and put 3 nuts in there. The gears in those things are plastic. You need to take the motor apart and get all that plastic junk out. Then put either 3 1/4" of 5/16" nuts in there and it will work better than new. I can't remember which size nuts fit.

This is easier than it sounds.
