Worth,TX (USA), was enroute at FL290 about 20nm southwest of Abilene,TX (USA) when the crew reported an indication of overheated outboard brake on the left outboard main wheel and decided to divert to Abilene requesting emergency services to attend the aircraft and direct their focus onto the left hand gear. They crew also requested someone with binoculars should check the aircraft on approach for any traces of smoke, the crew advised they would stop on the runway and would possibly evacuate. No smoke was seen on final approach after gear extension that resulted in three greens. The aircraft landed safely on Abilene's runway 35L, after roll out the brakes indicated normal again, the crew didn't trust that indication. Fire crews advised it was safe to taxi to the apron, the aircraft taxied to the apron with emergency services in trail.
The overheat indication was identified false.
