Rifter oil level sensor fault

I've got a 2020 Peugeot Rifter with a gasoline engine and I'm experiencing some issues. I'm getting an error message and a warning light on the speedometer related to 'oil level sensor signal faulty'. The oil pressure warning lamp also lights up sometimes. I've already checked the error memory and there’s definitely a stored error related to the oil level sensor. I suspect it might be a loose connection or a damaged cable. Has anyone else had a similar problem with their Rifter?

After checking the error memory and connections, it was confirmed that the issue was a defective connector. The workshop replaced the cable, resolving the problem.

I had a similar problem with my Rifter a while back. If I remember correctly, the error code pointed to the oil level sensor. Did you check the sensor itself, or just the cable?

I only checked the cable and the plug connection so far. Where exactly is the oil level sensor located? And how did you fix your Rifter?

The sensor should be located at the bottom of the oil pan. I would suggest, based on my experience and given the symptoms, that you bring your Rifter to a workshop. They will likely be able to diagnose it more accurately.

Thanks for the advice! It turned out to be a defective connector, as I suspected. The workshop replaced the cable, and the total repair cost was 95€. Everything seems to be working fine now.
