This is usually an indication of a very low idle or a stall causing the light to come on. Is the vehicle still running when this problem occurs or do you have to restart it?
Still running
The car will still be running but when it does it I have no power steering and my air conditioner stops once I put it in drive everything works.?
Does the vehicle have an RPM gague? If so what is it running at? Should be at least 750 rpm in reverse/drive at idle. Too low and there will not be enough engine rpm to operate the alternator and power steering pump causing this condition
Yes it has one but idk what it was at when the instances occurred. It was fine when I just backed out the drive way to check it. This has only happened twice and started two days ago.
You will have to take notice of where the needle points in relation to RPM when this problem occurs. You can also try revving the engine slightly just before you put it in reverse. Doing this can make the base idle perform normally. If you need more help/info, drop me a line and I will respond as soon as I can
Ok I will. Thank u so much for ur help so far

SOURCE: power steering & power brakes
Most likely is the power steering pump. There is also a revised flow control valve that threads into the back of the pump and a revised steering gear to address a lack of steering assist that could occur if the brakes are applied and turning the steering wheel with the vehicle stopped or during parking lot type maneuvers.

you will have to do this from under the vehicle first lossen the pump bolts then use a pry bar to push the pump out to put tension on the belt then tighten the pump bolts (be careful not to get the pump crooked)
SOURCE: transmission won't come out of reverse
your Transmission is controlled by a cable on the mustang. it could have Came off of the transmission. it just snaps on to a lever on the transmission. or the cable broke. other wise it came unhooked from your shifter.

The power steering bottle will have a rather big cap, and if you open the bottle you should notice it in an instance, because it is red in colour. Besides the power steering fluid, make sure that you dont have a belt missing on your pulleys. Some pwer steering pumps run on a separate belt. Just the fact that you said that the power steering suddenly went out, tells me that a belt could have snapped. Please let me know if you are sorted

This is a long/hard one to answer as a few things can cause this. First, check the vacuum lines running from the engine down to the front axles for cracks, and make sure you have vacuum to the axle hub. Second, remove and inspect the front wheel bearings, they should be set to proper preload and there should be no signs of water in the hub. And last if there is water in the hub, that most likely means there is rust on the front axle, and the pitting caused by the rust will not allow vacuum to build up and ingage the four wheel drive. the later requires a new front hub kit $$$.
Before servicing the vehicle, refer to the Precautions Section.
Disconnect the negative battery cable
Properly relieve the fuel system pressure.
Remove the alternator drive belt.
Remove the fresh air duct from the top of the radiator.
Remove the upper radiator hose.
Remove the 4 attaching nuts to the clutch fan.
Remove the 5 fan shroud bolts. Remove the fan and shroud as an assembly.
Remove the 4 splash guard mounting bolts and the splash guard.
Loosen the lock bolts and loosen the air conditioning drive belt.
Loosen the power steering lock and mounting bolt. Remove the power steering belt.
Remove the six crankshaft pulley mounting bolts and remove the pulley.
To install: reverse above
