85 Coupe OXS reset mechanism



Just bought an 85 Coupe GT.  Excellent vehicle. Minor issues, of course:
shifer bushings, etc.  I have two questions:

(1) The OXS light was on when I bought it.  I took the instrument cluster
housing off and discovered the nifty metal rod/hook that is supposed to
actuate the reset mechanism bar.  The reset bar, when pulled towards the
roof of the vehicle does not make a satisfying clunk like the FAQ said it
would; it just kind of moves with a grinding sort of resistance.  My fear
is that the mechanism is just shot (168k).  In any case, the light just
stays on.  Am I actuating the right actuator?  The FAQ said the reset
thingy is over the speedometer, but the only thing I could find was over
the center of the cluster between the speedo and tach.  

(2) Could someone quickly tell me what is usually wrong when a window won't
go up and down?  Passenger side, in this case.

Thank you.
