Monitor Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2025 Lexus RX 450h+, 2025 Lexus RX 350h, 2024 Lexus RX 450h+, 2024 Lexus RX 350h, and 2023 Lexus RX 350h. 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 higher than 4.865 V for 5 seconds or more, the ECM will store this DTC.
