Dead battery - transmission locked
The battery went dead in my 2006 GT last night. I do drive it in the winter but only on dry days. obviously this winter there has not been too many of those so it has been about 3 weeks since i drove it. anyway the battery was dead and i wanted to move the car back to get at the battery but the auto transmission would not engage. I turned the key on etc. Is there something i am missing?

I am guessing the new cars with their brake inter-lock are electronic. Meaning you need to put your foot on the brake and the brake sends a signal to the tranny. Without power this might not be happening.
Can you use battery jumper cables from a battery at the side to the car's battery?

dead battery
The transmission would not unlock even with the normal foot on the brake and the key lock turned. I was able to crawl across the engine and put the charger on.
the next problem i have is now the window does not automatically seal back up when the door is closed. any idea on how to reset this?

Your manual for the car tells you how to do the window reset. There is also a TSB.
Do a google search for this TSB.
