Default eng temp Sensor

Can any one enlighten me on the eng. temp sensor spec. I'm having issues with my 2002 Electra Guide Classic going dead after a long Hwy ride of 70mph or more, when I get back in to city roads, and having to deal with or wait at lights. If I let the bike sit for 10 min. or so after she die's everything lights back up and a way I go. depending on how far or how long I have to sit in city traffic she will stay alive. I find I can run all day at 60mph and have no issue. I do not know if I'm over heating or if the sensor is going out? Thank all for any input
