Default High temp and warning light blinking with YouTube video

It started last week, the overheating light and warning light (!) started blinking on and off, when hitting bumps or accelerating. Now, it's always on. Temperature gauge is ok, it never goes above two bars.
Is there something I can check in the engine area before pulling the cluster out?

It could be an electrical issue behind the cluster.

You can have a look here about the gauge and testing it. but it may not be the case.
