Probably not.

Did you get a new sensor because of the beep?

If you have 2 sensors, which one did you have changed?

Does the fan run correctly?

A single bar at the top and a beep is a cooling system electrical fault. You can read the codes with a cheap OBD reader (click here) at a first shot and if you can't get a code then try a go on lexia (info here) to read all the codes.
