Arrow Issues related to the LE FLAPS TRANSIT

Hello, Just landed at MMUN, and I was dispatched with a B737-700 MEL 27-1-1, ,and during flight both the #8 slat indicator (aft overhead panel) and the LE Transit Light (forward panel) were flashing on and some time off.During landing configuration upon extension of landing gear and flaps 15, the speed tape began to "shrink", so at selection of flaps 30, there was only about 10 KIAS between top and lower yellow speed bars.And at only about 10 feet about the runway, the takeoff configuration warning horn began to sound until touchdown.Landing weight was about 122000 pounds, and Vref for 30 flaps setting was 129, and for 15 flaps was 133.I choose to use Vref 15 with a 30 flap setting.All was normal during landing with no additional alarms.What caught most my attention was the takeoff configuration alarm as mentioned above.

It is something related with a LE FLAPS TRANSIT or it is maybe another issue related among this flap system and maybe the AIR/GROUND SENSOR.

Thanks, Schaye G.
