When you select flap on the Seneca (or indeed almost any A/c), you alter the characteristics of the wing (chord, relative AoA etc), and hence the stall characteristics. Therefore you have a stall warner designed purely for selection of flap, and the different characteristics this produces, and because of the different relative AoA the warner is positioned on a slightly different section of the leading edge.
