Exhaust overtemp sensor.  Interesting module provides analog electronic 
interface; lights up an indicator on the dash.  Engine itself has no way to 
recognize this. You're supposed to slow down.

The transaxle begins to sound serious ... you didn't mention ... or I forgot ... 
if you drained the gear lubricant and checked the magnetic drain plug.  Might be 
time to look for broken pieces.  Hope it isn't so ...

Goodness, you've been busy.
