Question type: Maintenance & Repair
looking for help in buying the correct and replacing my Front Drivers window
motor...My window has stopped going up! Is it just the motor or more that I
need to replace? Yes it's a "push button" not a hand crack type...all other
windows work great.

With power windows, it is likely that you will only need to replace the motor itself. That should solve your problem. I would definitely google your make, year, and model to find a good motor as the dealership will overcharge you to do the job.
TY Auto_Adrenaline, I read mixed "needs" on 2 different auto part stores websites...Auto Zone agrees with you. 1 more question IF I may, Is this "new" motor just going to fit the old mounting holes and be a simple plug in the wire and work kinda thing!!? Or will it need "settings" adjusted ???

You're welcome! Happy to help. And there are no settings needed for the new motor. It will plug into the same place the old one comes out of. You MAY want to disconnect your battery when you go to put the new motor in though as a precaution against electric shock. It wouldn't be a big one or very likely, but I like to have the battery disconnected any time I work on electrical components...even low amperage...just to be safe.
