CT200h Oil Temperature Sensor Error
Summary of the thread
A 2013 Lexus CT200h hybrid displayed a warning light related to the engine oil temperature sensor, with occasional oil pressure warning lamp activation. The issue was suspected to be due to a defective cable or plug connection. It was advised to check the oil temperature sensor connector for corrosion, which was confirmed as the problem. The connector was replaced at a local shop, resolving the error.

Yeah, I was thinking about the connector too. Where exactly is that sensor located, and how hard is it to get to? And no, the oil gauge seems to be normal.

It's a bit fiddly to reach without removing some other parts. Honestly, if you're not super confident, a workshop is the way to go. I ended up taking mine in after messing with it for an afternoon.

Thanks. Appreciate the advice. I took it to a local shop, and you were spot on – it was the connector. They replaced it and cleared the error codes. Cost me 95€. Runs like a charm now!

I had something similar with my CT200h. Check the oil temp sensor connector. They can get corroded. Is the oil gauge acting erratically too?
