Re: Motor under driver seat
It is probably your fuel filter. It is right about there and could be mistaken for a electric motor at a quick glance is it possible to take a pic and post it? I thought the abs pumps were right under the brake booster under the hood I have never seen anything abs related under there.

abs makes sense, as there is also some kind of box that looks like some kind of control module...

Re: Motor under driver seat
Does it look like this? It sits on a bracket welded to the frame beside the transmission. On the 96 - 05 models that is where the ABS module was placed. The ECM is mounted about where the older model vans ABS module is.
