Lexus LS Oil Pressure Light and Temperature Sensor

I'm freaking out a little. My 2018 Lexus LS hybrid is acting up. The oil pressure light keeps flashing along with a warning light on the speedometer. Plus, the error memory logged a fault. Any ideas? Could this be related to the engine temperature?

Whoa, sounds familiar! I've got an LS too. I had similar symptoms a while back – warning lights galore. Have you checked the temp sensor?

Temp sensor? You mean the engine oil temperature sensor? Where is that located, and what exactly did you do to fix it? Was it just the sensor itself?

Yep, engine oil temp sensor. Turns out the cable or plug connection for mine was defective. Honestly, I just took it to a workshop; messing with that stuff can be risky. Is it worth the risk?

Thanks for the tip! You were spot on. I took it to my mechanic, and it was indeed the oil temperature sensor cable. 95€ later, and it's all fixed! I really appreciate the help!
