    I have a 2013 case 580 sn, and there’s a yellow exclamation mark on right hand dash. What’s that mean?
    Thanks!
    Jeff

    1. David R. Ledford

      Hi, Jeff. The yellow exclamation mark (!) warning light on the right-hand dash of your 2013 Case 580 Super SN backhoe loader is a general warning indicator. It signals that the machine has detected a fault or abnormal condition that needs attention – but it’s not necessarily critical (unlike a red stop light).

      Common causes include:
      – Low fluid levels (engine oil, coolant, hydraulic fluid)
      – Electrical system faults
      – Transmission or hydraulic system alerts
      – Sensor malfunctions (e.g., temperature, pressure)
      – DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) present – not always visible without diagnostics.

      1. David R. Ledford

        What you should do:

        1) Check for additional warning or fault codes on the display or diagnostic system if equipped. The exclamation mark often accompanies a fault code.

        2) Inspect fluid levels (engine oil, hydraulic fluid, coolant) and condition.

        3) Make sure the parking brake is properly set or released (some machines show the symbol if it detects inconsistent parking brake signals).

        Check the operator’s manual for specific indicator explanations and steps. If available, connect a diagnostic tool to retrieve any stored fault codes to identify the exact problem.
