Narrative:

Received 14TH stage bleed overheat message in flight. Procedure accomplished and warning went away; but returned later. After cycling it remained on the rest of the flight. Procedures called for landing with the left engine at idle and conducting a flaps 20 degrees (vice 45 degrees) landing. A previous write-up indicated a loop or sensor problem instead of an actual overheat. An uneventful landing was conducted. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: the reporter stated the cause of the 14TH stage warning was a sensing loop failure and was a false warning. A section of the left 14TH stage manifold sensing element was replaced for the fix.
