LogR oil temp not reading!!!

[FL5ghost]

Hello, I noticed this morning that the oil temp wasn’t reading.. it was reading fine before. now out of the blue, it just stopped. I checked my flash pro and the oil temp was normal. Could this be a mechanical issue??

I’ve noticed that it can take awhile for the car’s oil temp gauge to re-estimate the oil temp if you drive for awhile, park for a bit and turn the car off, then drive again. It always comes back, but not immediately. Not sure about LogR, but one would think that it simply follows the car’s oil temp gauge.

This is normal if you had just started the car.

You have a code, scan it.

True! But I had been driving the car for at least 20-25 minutes by then.

Yep, it's worked fine up until now.

There's no code. If you're talking about the thread I made a couple of days ago that was due to the flex fuel kit. I ended up taking that off.

It won’t read until oil temp is 125*.

Code won’t show up until scanned it’s probably one of those hidden ones. Just scan it to make sure.

You were right… I've got a Trouble code. P0302 cylinder 2 misfire

Clear it and the temp will show up.

What could've caused this issue? Like i stated the car was driving fine and i was beating on it pretty good to a certain extent Lol. Do my spark plugs need to be regapped? Also is it safe for me to drive?

Nothing mechanical at all, as that is just a calculated value. That's happened to me once our twice, usually after a full cycle off and then on again solves it

Sometimes on start up it will throw codes. Had that happen to me once and never again.

Took the car around my neighborhood And the burbles Came back on and thankfully no trouble code. So I'm going to assume I'm good. Thank you for responding And being helpful.
