Default car freaking out CEL

last nite i was riding around with a few cars and we stopped to eat somewheres and when i got back in my car and turned it on i noticed a CEL. My speedo started jumping from 0-past 120 and kept doing that all nite. Its also affecting my tranny like when i go into gears it trips out and doesnt wanna go into gear for a while. My friends and i rewired my system last nite. Could this be a problem?? or is there some other problem. helpppp

might i ask WHY you rewired the system? that's most likely the problem. see what the CEL light is for though
