Default ABS Emergency brake and Engine fail safe

I hit a massive bump the other night in my 05 F-150 lariat 4x4 and my ABS and emergency light came on and left fog light and head light went dim. Tried turning the key off and the truck kept running!! It would bog down but I turned it back on to keep it going. On the way home my engine fail safe mode came on. I got home and had to put it into gear to kill it. It will kill its self fine as long as my lights are off but abs and emergency still flash. Any tips?

Maybe you pinched a wire in or near the headlight assembly or at the Power Distribution Center under the hood. I would do a visual check before using an OBD-2 tester to scan for codes.
