with any luck
for your sake it may only be the thermostat. Best bet is to take it out and see if it is still working.

more info
Hey mate , a little more info might help us help you .
Are you sure its a overheat alarm not a oil flow/level alarm , if so what conditions cause the alarm to sound ?
If it is overheating can you feel the heads and figure out which side is hot .
