Work truck's speedo died

2005 f250 auto 4wd. Speedo/odo stopped working, ABS light on, tow/haul blinks, check engine light on. Pulled P0500 code, VSS replaced, codes cleared, P0500 code came back. Both front wheel bearings were replaced about a month ago with ford parts.
I heard about the TSS and OSS sensors would they cause this?
Any ideas?

I found reference to TSS and OSS having to do with the turbo. I don't believe the turbo should communicate with the ABS system. I think it's time to start tracing wires. If the wires look good, I'd suspect the VSS to have been a bad new unit.

The VSS is also a ford part. This truck has a few parts already that we couldnt get aftermarket.

You may have received a bad VSS, it happens every now and then.

The warranty on an 05 is 3 year 36,000 bumper to bumper, 5 year 100,000 mile for emissions (no deductable) and 5 year 100,000 for the 6.0L engine only.

In mid 2006 Ford added in a 5 year 60,000 mile powertrain warranty for the remaining 06 and 07 models.
