Yep, that's the way I read it. Loss of temperature instrumentation data due to cable burn-through along with tire pressure increase due to temperature increase with subsequent LOS due to cable burn-through.

Although not a NASA engineer, it sounds like the left wing thermal protection system lost integrity with subsquent wing structure burn-through with disasterous results.

Not a good day...
