Monitor Description
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2024 Lexus ES 300h, 2023 Lexus ES 300h, 2022 Lexus ES 300h, 2021 Lexus ES 300h, and 2020 Lexus ES 300h. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The ECM monitors the engine oil temperature sensor and uses the sensor voltage to calculate the engine oil temperature. If the engine oil temperature sensor output voltage deviates from the normal operating range, the ECM determines that the engine oil temperature sensor circuit is malfunctioning and stores this DTC.
Example:
If the engine oil temperature sensor output voltage is less than 0.535 V for 5 seconds or more, the ECM will store this DTC (for TMC Made).
If the engine oil temperature sensor output voltage is less than 0.13 V for 5 seconds or more, the ECM will store this DTC (for TMMK Made).
