Question
The tints of my driver side window on my 2005 Ford F-150 were coming off so I figured I'd peel some of it off and re-tint the next day. The sticky solution left on the window wouldn't let me lower (not raise) the window. I tried to lower the window with my hand while pressing the down button. The bracket lowered all the way down without the window making it (the window) slide down into the door panel. Neither the bracket, regulator, nor the clips seem to be broken I guess its just that when the window came loose off the bracket there was nothing to hold it up so it fell into the door. How can I fix this problem? Or better yet what steps do i take to open the door panel and place the window back on the bracket?

Answer
Hi Rolando,
 
             To find out what happened the panel must come off, a couple of Phillips screws and a pull should do it and then you should see the bonding on the glass or on the regulator arm. The gummy stuff on the glass can be cleaned with ammonia. Open her up and tell me what you find and we will go from there! Hope this helps! Stay Safe. Derek : }
