Thanks for the tip! I haven't checked the cable and plug yet. Where exactly is the oil temperature sensor located, and is it easy to access? I'm not mechanically gifted, but I'm willing to give it a shot before taking it to a mechanic.

It's usually located near the oil filter. While it might be accessible, if you're not comfortable, I'd suggest taking it to a workshop. In my case, a defective cable or plug connection was the culprit, and they fixed it quickly. It's better to be safe than sorry when it comes to oil pressure.

Thanks a bunch for the advice! I took it to a mechanic, and you were spot on it was a defective cable connection to the oil temperature sensor. They fixed it for 95€, and the warning lights are gone. Really appreciate the help!

I had a similar issue with my Yaris (not sure about the year, though). The error memory kept storing a fault related to the oil temperature sensor. Have you checked the cable and plug connection to the sensor? That was my issue.
