Several battery temperature readings moving together may share a cause

A group of temperature channels changing at the same moment deserves a check of shared measurement circuitry. It is different evidence from one cell area warming gradually under load.

How to narrow it down

Compare the timing and pattern of the readings with ambient conditions, charging state and available diagnostic flags. A qualified technician can then decide whether to investigate actual thermal behaviour or the sensing path. Retain the full group of readings, including those that stay normal.

What to include with the fault report

Provide time-stamped temperature data and whether the event occurs parked, charging or driving.

An implausible pattern is not permission to ignore a battery warning. Follow the vehicle’s stop or recovery instructions where displayed.
