I have a 97 F150 when I start it, it will not go into gear. Also the brake lights do not work and the ABS light is constantly blinking. I'm pretty sure all these things are related but I'm not sure how. What I do no is that the number 13 fuse is blown and when I replace it all the problems will go away for about 15 minutes and then the fuse will blow again and all the problems will come back. I've replaced the brake light switch and it didn't help does anyone have anymore suggestions?

It sounds like you have a short somewhere in the wiring that is making the fuse blow. You need to trace the short because it is just going to keep blowing the fuse.
