You're probably right. Probably have some water in a connector.

Seems to me you have a bit of water in the sensor. I would keep an eye on the temp gauge so see if it does anything wacky. One thing to remember is never use a pressure washer to clean your motor, regular old house pressure will do the trick. Also make sure the motor is cold and not running. Best of luck to you
