Does the check engine light have anything to do with the transmission?

quite possibly....the check engine light is a universal signal saying "something is wrong". Take the car to auto zone and have them use the hand held diagnostic. Once used, the diagnostic will pull up a code from the engine's computer that the auto zone employee can pull up. Once the code is looked up for that particular vehicle, itll tell you what the light came on for.

The flashing check engine light is meant to alert you that you may have a misfire in your engine that will cause catalytic converter damage. Replace a catalytic converter and have the engine checked as soon as possible by a certified mechanic. A transmission warning light may serve a double duty. It may inform you of transmission faults, but the transmission light also serve as a maintenance reminder to let you know it is time to check or change your transmission fluid, or to take your vehicle to the dealer for regular maintenance.
