Oil Temperature Sensor P0196 / P0197 / P0198 | How to Test and Replace

- How to test and replace an oil temperature sensor; P0196 - P0197 and P0198. This sensor detects oil engine temperature and sends that message to the ecm. On the end of the sensor is a thermistor. The resistance decreases as temperature increases. You can quickly test the sensor via digital multi-meter and a hair dryer.
P0196 - Incorrect voltage is sent to the ecm when comparing signals from other sensors, such as the coolant temperature sensor and intake air temperature sensor.
P0197 - Low voltage; less than .17v
P0198 - High Voltage; greater than 4.7v
An average reading at idle is 1.0 - 1.4v
This vehicle happens to be a 2010 Subaru Impreza non-turbo.

#oiltempsensor #p0196
This video is 5 years old and still very very relevant. Thank you for this.
Awesome video. Thanks for helping us.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video.
Glad to help.
Ah, thanks. Just what I needed to know.
Wow, thank you! Especially for explaining what the codes actually mean! Amazing video, thank you so much!
Very good explanation. Have a question I replaced the sensor and the filter adapter. Also got the wiring check still get the p0198 code can you explain what else is wrong please
Great video... Is the voltage reading did not decrease that would mean the sensor is badd correct?
Correct. The ohms reading should decrease when heat is applied and vice versa.
Your sensor has a copper washer that seals it to the block which is what prevents oil leakage. You can see it laying on the block when you removed the sensor. No RTV is needed
thank you sir
Hey, I’ve maybe been having a problem with my oil temperature. According to the obdii interface I use the oil temp never reaches the correct operating range. For example I just drove to Vermont and back - about 240mi one way and the maximum stable temperature I saw was 142°F. It did occasionally blip to 260 and thereabouts. For my engine (ej253) the correct temp is about 176. I'm planning on testing the sensor now that I know where it is but do you think that the sensor is malfunctioning or could the oil actually stay that cold? If it was reading correctly I have no idea what could be going on. Thanks in advance if you actually see this.
Hi Nice Video...just wondering if there is a "copper gasket" between the engine block and the sensor itself on this suburu engine..?? ty EXCELLENT
Thanks, that was a very informative video.
Thanks. Appreciate it.
I like how you describe how the sensor works. Great explanation. Do you have a video or you can point me in the right direction as I am rebuilding an automatic trans on an 05 impreza outback. Thanks in advance.
Thank you. Unfortunately I don't have any auto trans rebuild videos. I will have one soon regarding a manual.
I don’t have a trouble code but I seen the sensor yesterday on my car and it spins fully around it didn’t seem right should I replace it? I do have a P0171 code though. Any suggestions? Just did the pcv and hose yesterday
Thanks alot - thats a great and informative video.
Happy to help.
@@CarsNToys Hi - Just wanted your advice. Now my AT Oil Temp sensor keeps on flashing intermittently despite having changed the ATF. I did a diagnosis and it gave an error code C0108 and C0140. Any suggestions?
Do you know if the 2016 ram with 6.7 cummins has this sensor. I have the digital oil temp displayed on my dash. But I cannot find info on this sensor.
Hi, I have VW Atlas. Getting P0196 code ,in the video you mentioned they throw that code if the sensors are not correlating as they should . So Is there a point in me even testing the sensor ? If the oil temp sensor is not working properly would it throw PO196? I have cleared the code but it eventually came back and have been watching the oil temp, nothing out of the ordinary. We have had extreme cold temps but not sure if that would matter .
I'm getting code 196 on a 2006 mercury mountaineer showing "engine oil temperature sensor out of read code range" and like others, I'm unable to find the part. The only option is a coolant sensor. Not sure what to do. Found one at Advanced auto but it's out of stock. Driveworks 31240.
Hi! I have an Oil leak in that area, trying to diagnose what exactly casing it. Do you know what is the connector (White) next to the temp sensor?
What about the B1100 error code? I've seen some sites that was talking about it and it said it was the Oil temperature sensor.. Could it also be ?
Hello, is it possible to give a few tips on oil temp gauge install on a 99 Subaru Legacy? Cannot seem to locate were to thread the temp sensor
Hi, would be the same oil temp sensor location for a wrx 2013? Thanks mate
Tk u u help me a lot , God bless u
, awesome well done .
Thank you! Cheers!
Hi
I don’t find g8 sensor on my Passat 36 (2009) motor code BWS 🤷🏻♂️
I disconnected the top one that only has 1 cord and put the new one in there. And it broke inside of there. I dont even know what it was but it's almost the same part. 95 Saturn s1
Is this for optima?
🎉🎉🎉 You FTW
Could a faulty one be the culprit why my ‘06 Outback refuses to start, when it’s cold outside? Eventually, it will start after cranking many times!
My digital oil temp and gauge fluctuates while idling. The oil temperature fluctuates down and up 2-4celsius. Is this normal?
Can temp sensor make the oil pressure light come on?
I followed another of your videos and swapped out the coolant temp sensor. Are these they same sensor in different areas? They look the same and I cannot for the life of me find a Oil temp sensor only coolant. Thanks
They are similar. Your vehicle may not have an oil temp sensor. What kind of vehicle are you working on?
@@CarsNToys Mine is a 2010 Subaru Impreza outback sport. I use Dashcommand on my ipad to monitor all the temps and my Oil temp is averaging 265-273. So everyone said swap the oil temp sensor out first to make sure its accurate.
for vw jetta 2019 I can't find "oil temperature sensor" only "oil pressure sensor"
I disconnected the top one that only has 1 cord and put the new one in there. And it broke inside of there. I dont even know what it was but it's almost the same part
Hi, my question is oil temperature sensors are same to coolant temperature sensors?
No. Here's the coolant temp sensor: ruclips.net/video/bPAIFL8VH9w/видео.html
Great video!
What's the benefit of adding RTV at the end? Wouldn't that just add an unnecessary risk of something to flake off in the future?
Tengo el p0196 el sensor de mi moto esta trabajando bien marcar circuito abierto en el escáner borre código y ya no apareció más a que se debera
where is the sensor in a 2019 jetta please?
Where can I order that part??
Mine beeps and shows 0.00 in all ohm settings. Is that bad?
Hi is this the at oil sensor
05f150 code 198 3v engine
Bitchin camera...great video!!!
Hey, I have the code P0197 on my challenger. I replaced the Oil temp sensor to see if that would fix it, it did not. When I start the car it reads oil temp until I drive for a little then it stops reading and the CEL comes on with that code. Any info on how to diagnose the problem? What tests I could do to find it? Any info would help thank you.
Is the oil temp increasing or staying at a constant temperature?
CarsNToys increases to like 206 and stays around there. Oil temp itself seems fine, the sensor just likes to shut off and the CEL comes on saying the circuit has low voltage.
So i have a weird one. I'm getting these code errors, p0196 & p0198 just as shown on this video, but when i called and spoke to Autzone and O'Reilys, they claim they have no listing for the oil temp sensor what so ever. They called it a coolant sensor which to me does not sound right, as 'ive read on other forums that those are 2 different sensors. I'm seriously confused if i bought the correct part and if i'm going to replace the correct component in my 2013 nissan altima.
It was only $10 so not a big loss if its the wrong part for the nissan, but it looks exactly like what you show here in your video. The only difference is they called it a colant temp sensor and not an oil temp sensor.
Do u know the part number?
You can quickly dig one up by visiting a Subaru parts website.
