ABS, A/c clutch,speedometer,odometer quit at the same time

Can you help me my 1999 ford winstar ABS light stays on, the a/c clutch will come on and the odometer/ speedometer all stopped at the same time. The van runs fine and all other dash lights seem to be working.I never had any problems before other than I have heard a clicking to the left side of the dask like the rear air switch for the fan blower.

Volttick is right, you should also have gotten a letter from Ford saying you need to bring it in and they will fix it for you, the fire starting problem, i am guessing it would also fix rest, i will let you know in a few days, im getting mine done today

Its your ABS system. There is a faulty switch/sensor on the master cylinder. It leaks brake fluid into the wires connected to it and causes the circuit to short, resulting in a blown fuse that controls the AC, odometer, speedometer, cruise control and ABS light to stay on. This can even cause a fire in the vehicle. A fire can occur even when the vehicle is turned off. To correct the problem go to this link - http://www.fordwindstarrecall.info/

I have a ford winstar and the O/D light is flashing and the check transmission light is on but that only comes on once you start driving. My Break light and ABS light is on all the time. My odometer does...

sounds like you need a speed sensor as well as an ABS module. it runs the speedometer, as well as inform on the wheel speed to make the ABS work, AND the transmission uses it to know when to shift.

generally do not drive it when the O/D light is flashing, it means an issue bad enough to cause serious damage to the trans.

My speedometer quit but the odometer still works (1998 F150) can you solve this

Usually it's the opposite. The speedometer works and the odomater and trip meter go inop. Most likely the speedometer assembly is bad. If the odometer is working you have a signal from the gray and black wire .
