Default 2011 Ford ranger gear shift **** pulled off and caused electrical problems

I am wondering if anyone else has run into this problem when I shifted my automatic 2011 ford ranger. The gear **** pulled off and exposed the overdrive wires. When this happened my traction control light turned on, my abs and parking brake light turned. Also my turn signals no longer work. Any help would be appreciated

Thanks Cullen

Based on what you've said I would guess that the wires for the overdrive share a connector with the other switches that no longer work. Thus when the shifter end with the overdrive switch and wires came out they pulled and damaged this shared connector.
I would remove the trim panel under the steering column and look for wires damaged/disconnected/broken connectors.

I would be checking for blown fuses.
