Help? Electrical???

First off its a 1993 f250 5.0 over 140k auto.

Woke up this morning and my truck which worked PERFECTLY when I parked it the night before is all fudged up now.

The problems are. No blinkers,no wipers,brake light on,no odometer,no speedometer and worst of all it now KICKS like a mule while shifting very late and very hard shifts I'm worried it's gonna bomb the tranny.

None of these problems existed 10 hours before that when I shut it down for the night.

Once an electrical circuit is operating (normally- without an outside interference) it will continue to operate normally. So to say that it was working fine when you parked it, doesn't rule much out. My guess is that you burnt up a relay of some sort when cranking it. The inrush of current on a fragile component did it in. In the words of Doc Holiday, "I'm afraid the strain was more than he could bare"
