Brake problem

I have a 06 F350 dually with a desiel 50000 miles. Front right brake seized and started to smoke. let cool down then started home then front right and rear started to smoke. Pulled the ABS fuse and it seemed to unlock brakes, Made it home put fuse back in and now it seems ok, other then brakes are soft, probably from beak pad lose i figure. The only code my reader shows is a " speed senser faulty reading"

Any ideas

As far as the brakes go if it where me I would be putting the truck up on stands and inspecting the pads, rotors, calipers (clean and grease the slide pins)and if it where that hot to start smoking probably have a look at the wheel bearing and regreasing them an overall inspection/ PM.

I never had a speed sensor fault but this is what I found in a quick search, I'm sure more knowledgeable folks will be along.
