My ABS, WRENCH/TOOL LIGHT ALONG WITH SLIPPERY LIGHTS COME ON AT THE SAME TIME. Been happening for about 3 weeks. I notice if I get at or above 60mi the lights come on. What could be causing my Dash to light up like this?

Already change a rear sensor.

    The ABS and other lights light indicates that the computer has detected a malfunction in the ABS/traction control system and has diagnostic codes and data stored which would be essential in diagnosing the problem.
    A technician with a scanner can access the diagnostic codes and data and then be able to give you a diagnosis. I don't know what's causing your problem, you'll have to get it diagnosed by a Ford specialist.
    Be advised that your ABS and traction/skid control systems are not functioning when the warning light's on, that's a safety issue, get it diagnosed ASAP for your safety.
