confused Speedo, ABS & Service Engine Warning!

2000, F250, Triton V8, Manual---
Within a 5 minute span the ABS warning indicator lit up then the Service Engine Soon indicator lit up and finally the Speedometer went out. During this time I was towing an RV with trailer brakes. I've never had a problem towing before. Turning the vehicle off did not turn the indicators off. Also, all warning indicators remain lit when not towing. Obviously this is electrical and/or sensor related issue but don't want to waste my time at the dealership repairing a leased "hunk-of-junk". Any ideas????

Yes, I agree on the speed sensor. Unless Ford changed the way their systems work, the speed sensor is used for the ABS system to detect wheel lockup as well as vehicle speed which is why the speedo isn't working anymore.
