Default RANDOM BREAK ISSUE 92 SC 400. Need help asap.

So i was just driving my 92 sc 400, and the brake became very stiff all of a sudden. I have very little braking ability, yet the brakes are now stiffer than ever? I noticed the 60A fuse for ABS in the fuse panel is damaged, could this be the culprit? The brakes feel as if they have no power assist? Any assistance would be appreciated, I am left without a vehicle.
