* Engine temperature gauge: Measures the temperature of the engine coolant. A malfunctioning cooling system will affect this reading.
* Oil pressure gauge: Measures the pressure of the engine oil. This reflects the health of the oil pump and the condition of the engine's bearings and seals.
While low oil pressure can *indirectly* lead to higher engine temperatures (due to reduced lubrication and increased friction), the gauges themselves are independent and measure different parameters. A problem with one doesn't automatically mean a problem with the other.
