I have power at the fuse box but no power at the master switch (driver side front door) . Is there a relay under the dash . I found the pink wire from behind the fuse box . It goes up behind the dash . I can't find how it goes to the master switch . No windows work at all .

I don't have access to an 85 electrical manual, but I can tell you where to get a free 86 electrical manual. It should be very close to the 85 except for the engine.

See http://slantnosefox.com/picturehosting/jeremy/86 electrical & vacuum troubleshooting manual.zip you can download the whole set of electrical troubleshooting and diagrams for an 86 Mustang courtesy of Jeremy, AKA V8only.

It is a big 61 MB download that you get to unzip and save on your computer. It may take some time to download it, but the results are worth your time.

And he will be hard to reach since he is dead and buried. His email and IPhone went with him...

Leave the silly Istuff behind an use a Windows PC. It will work that way.
I just tested the link and Windows 7 gives you 3 options: Open, Save or Save as

Since you are not part of my immediate family like my wife or my grandchildren, you are out of luck getting me to read it to you...
