Default Will low tranny fluid cause a CEL?

Installed a new radiator, when i start my car there's no CEL but the second i hit mid-high rpm CEL comes on and stays on.

Quite a bit of tranny fluid poured out when i removed the stock radiator, so i'm assuming this is why. Anything else that would cause a CEL to come on the first time i acceleterate? Never had it before i swapped the radiator so it can only be something i messed with in that aspect.

pull the code.. and i am guessing that you have a auto tranny since fluid came out when you changed the radiator.. you may want to fill your tranny back up, unless you want to cook the one thats in your car now.
