Default ARS motor inop, can't drive car!!

I thought my car was losing power, it kept getting worse and worse. I noticed the pedel felt like it does when the ASR kicks in, so I finally got it home (at about 10MPH) and looked under the hood. The vehicle will not rev up at all at this point (used to not get above 2K RPM) when i used the gas pedal, but it would if I used the throttle under the hood. I noticed that the traction control/cruise control motor would move the middle part, but not the right or left hand part. And now that the egine will not rev up at all from inside the car, the ASR light is always on.

So basically I think either the relay or the morot itself went out. Has anyone ran into this problem? I tried to do some ohm tests on the relay, but I'm not sure how much resistance to look for.

PLEASE HELP!!!

The ABS Motor Pack is an easy replacement -- I did it on my '95 3.4L.

But first I would pay and get your ABS system computer scanned to know the exact problem(s). Most scanners you buy do not also scan ABS, but this one does if you want to buy one:
