No. If that had failed to max temp the fan would be howling and the temp gauge pegged at max. It'll warn at 130c and you'll know about it.
You may actually have a cluster failure. Its rare but not unheard of.
Next step if it were in the workshop would be to pull the cluster and locate T32b/18 and ground it right at the cluster. Dismantle the connector & find a spare pin and a bit of thin wire and just remove pin 18 and replace it with the spare. Ground the bit of wire and see what it does.
If the warning goes away you have a wiring issue between the cluster and the tank. If the warning doesn't go away you likely have a dry joint in the cluster itself which would require professional assistance to solve.
