Seat Tarraco Oil Pressure Warning Light Issue

I'm losing my mind here. My 2023 Seat Tarraco with a Gasoline engine has decided to throw a tantrum. Oil pressure warning lamp comes on, accompanied by the same old warning light in the speedometer and an error code in the memory related to a faulty engine oil temperature sensor. The workshop thinks it's a defective cable or plug connection on the component. Anyone else had this? Getting proper stressed about my oil sensor!

Sounds familiar! I had something similar happen with my Tarraco. The oil sensor acted up, triggering the same warning light. Did you check the engine sensor connections? Sometimes it's just a loose or corroded plug.

Engine sensor connections, eh? Where exactly am I looking for that? Is it easy to get to, or am I gonna need to dismantle half the engine?

Yeah, I remember the panic when mine went off! Before ripping anything apart, check the oil temperature sensor and its connection first. That's probably the quickest win. But honestly, I'd get it checked by someone who knows what they're doing. Could save you a bigger headache later.

Just got it sorted. You were spot on, I think. They checked the oil gauge wiring and the plug on the temperature sensor, cleaned everything up, and that seems to have done the trick. Cost me 95€, but hey, peace of mind is priceless. Cheers for the help!
