WTS light comes on while driving

It happend during a long drive towing a 8k trailer in hot weather and mountain terrain. It came on with a ding...ding...ding sound, but only lasted a minute or so with everything working fine after the next shut down start up cycle. Has anyone had this happen before?
I did have a half second 3500 RPM redline incident after forcing a down shift in second (AT tranny) going 65 or so, could they be related?

Unfortunately or fortunately, depending on how you look at it, the WTS issue is well known.

I have a call in to Bob Wagner from Smarty now, I hope he can help with the updated software.
I removed the Smarty and the light went off and hasn't come back since.
