Camry oil temperature sensor fault

I have a 2018 Toyota Camry with a gasoline engine. I'm experiencing some issues that I believe are related to the engine oil temperature sensor. The warning light is on, and I pulled the error memory which also confirms this. Furthermore, the oil pressure warning lamp lights up intermittently. From what I've read, it seems like the cable or plug connection of the component might be defective. Has anyone else run into something similar?

That sounds familiar. I had a similar problem with my old BMW 3 series. Same warning lights, turned out to be a faulty sensor connection. Is the car driving any differently, or just showing the warnings?

Thanks for the quick reply! Besides the warning lights, the car seems to be driving normally. Did your BMW also drive normally with that sensor issue?

Yeah, the BMW drove fine too, just those annoying lights. I wouldn't risk driving it too much though, get it checked out. Turned out to be a corroded connector. Cost me about 80€ to fix back then. Best get it to a workshop.

Thanks for confirming that! I took your advice and brought it in. You were spot on, faulty connector on the temp sensor. Repair cost was 95€. Appreciate the help!
