No, your transmission is probably overheating, just probably not to the outrageous 230+ degree pan temp that the original TCU will see as overheating. Get one of the ecu tune TCUs and it gets more realistic at 212, which is a safe threshold assuming your fluid has heated evenly and you don't have a specific hot spot that is boiling it
