Weird Problems!

HI GUYS!

1996 f150 sc 4wd, Last Thurs all o.k. last Friday started truck to goto work and ABS light is on, tried brakes in driveway and seems o.k. so goto first stop and shut off, when I come back and start ABS light is on and now CHECK ENGINE! start driving and then the O/D light on shifter starts blinking.... and little bit more and then the speedomter needle drops from like 45 to zero and the odometer quits working!!! so I take the off ramp and head for home and take something else. havent drove since last week becuase working too much and its cold and crappy in western PA. any ideas? i dont think my regular mechanic can handle this and I am thinking dealership......

The blinking O/D light indicates transmission code. With all the other stuff going on, that's very strange. Maybe a loose wire harness cable connector?
