I just bought the vehicle listed above it is the XLT model. While driving, all warning lights started to go on, the speedometer and odometer goes to zero but the engine is still on and every other electric part works (radio, headlight, turn signs etc.). Can you help me please? Thank you.

Good morning.

It sounds like the cluster itself is failing since you lost speedometer and mileage as well. Have a shop check it for you to see if they can communicate with the dash. If it has failed it can be sent out and repaired.

If you run the codes it could give us a communication error which will lead us to the problem. Please run the codes.

Here is a guide to help you get started:
