I have a 2000 dodge ram 1500 pick up. This morning driving down the highway my abs and brake light indicator light came on and my speedometer stopped working. I pulled over at a gas station and found that my abs and power steering fluids were low. I filled them back up but the lights would not turn off. The truck seemed to run fine and since I was a long ways from my house I continued to very slowly continue down the road. By the time I got to my house the engine light came on. Any ideas.

Have truck scanned with chassis scanner, this will most likely have to be done a garage with appropiate scanner. Most autoparts stores can only scan "P" powertrain codes.

Check the ABS wheel sensors first, you may have one loose/broken.
