Megane Oil Temperature Sensor Fault

Esteemed members of the Renault community, I come to you with a vexing issue concerning my 2010 Renault Megane, equipped with a gasoline engine. The vehicle has served me faithfully for 50937 kilometers, but recently, a disconcerting warning light has illuminated within the speedometer. Further investigation revealed an error stored within the error memory, specifically related to the engine oil temperature sensor. To compound matters, the oil pressure warning lamp now illuminates intermittently. Given my intermediate level of expertise, I have meticulously checked the sensor itself, yet I suspect a potential defect within the cable or plug connection. Has anyone encountered a similar predicament? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated, as I am rather concerned about the potential ramifications of neglecting this issue.

I had something similar happen in my Megane. Same warning lights. Did you check the simple things like the oil level itself?

Indeed, I did meticulously verify the oil level, ensuring it resides precisely within the prescribed range. However, I appreciate your suggestion. Was the issue you experienced also related to the oil temperature sensor, and if so, what was the ultimate resolution?

Yes, it was the same sensor. Ended up taking it to a workshop. They found a faulty connection. Worth getting it checked out properly.

Thank you for sharing your experience! Based on your input, I will concede that a professional diagnosis is warranted. It appears a visit to the workshop is indeed unavoidable. The estimated repair cost of 95€ seems reasonable, given the circumstances. I appreciate your insight; it has alleviated my anxieties considerably.
