Common causes of overheating are; defective ( stuck closed ) thermostat, low coolant level, bad water pump, failed electric fan relay, failed electric fan, failed electric fan thermo switch, blockage in coolant lines or radiator or blown head gasket ( check oil dipstick for coolant in your oil pan ). The Temp sensor does not prevent overheating, it just senses how hot the engine is.
Try changing the coolant fill tank screw on cap,that is what mine was.

No it wouldn't, but jump starting the car or over heating the engine would crap out the sensor. I'm in the process of changing my crank position sensor now, but my original broke in my engine block ... so I need to drill a hole so I can pull it out without pushing it in my block. :(
