What does this fault code mean?

The control module (ECM) compares the oil temperature with the air temperature from the mass air flow sensor, the coolant temperature and the outside temperature. The code is set when the difference is too large and the signal from the sensor is too high.

Possible causes

Signal wire shorted to voltage
Damaged sensor for engine oil pressure and oil temperature

What you can do

1Check that the fuses are intact
2Read and clear the code, then start the engine to see whether it returns
3Check the combined oil pressure and oil temperature sensor connector for damage and oxidation
4Use a multimeter to check that the signal wire is not shorted to voltage
5If you have a diagnostic tool: read the oil temperature in live data and see whether it is high compared with the coolant temperature when the engine is warm
6If the fault remains, a workshop should check the sensor and its wiring

Symptoms you may notice1
