electrical issues

This all happened at once so ill give the rundown, any advice or help would be greatly appreciated. When I turn on the truck my speedometer doesn't work, no mileage is displayed on the cluster, I have power to my radio but not to my speakers, and my overdrive light flashes aswell as the transmission shifts horribly now. again any advice or help is greatly appreciated.

I believe the computer gets the speed signal through the speedometer module. If that is not working, I suppose the flashing O/D off light and horrible shifting is not a surprise.
