I agree with ASFKAP. Just to clarify my earlier answer:

That fail safe protection is activated when a needle split is sensed by the indicator. If there was no indicated asymmetry (i.e.: no noticeable needle split) then the flap position indicator most likely has nothing to do with it. Especially knowing that the alternate flap extension system didn't work either.
