Actual Question

Welcome to MTF! Lots of info here and great members to help and share with so enjoy the site. Here is some site navigation assistance in case you need it: Might be worth a phone call to the dealer service department to see if they'd answer the question.

Could that be tire pressure??

I used to work DTAC (Dealer Technical Assistance Center) for Deere Excavator Group. I retired before this model 4 wheel drive loader (4WDL) was developed and made available to customers. First we need to understand this is a modern computer controlled machine. To diagnose problems on this machine technician is required to connect to tractor thru "Service Advisor". My speculation is this unit has a TierIV engine which requires regular service. This is complicated, expensive, and the reason I chose to retire. This is not a shade tree mechanic unit. I looked up the details for a 244L 4WDL. It does have a Yanmar 4TN98CT Tier4 engine. Has Jesco said why they will not support? I think you need to review Operators Manual for engine maintenance details and follow the steps provided before going back to dealer for assistance. Sorry I could not help more .... Gabby

...sounds the dealer will do the work, just all their mechanics are busy to not work on it immediately...

It's an engine caution light. The black outline is a universal symbol for "engine", the exclamation point lets you know something needs attention, and the yellow color means this is a "caution" level alert. Generally: Red is warning. Needs attention NOW. Yellow is caution. Needs attention soon. White is advisory. Just letting you know about something. Do you have any messages showing anywhere? Or just this light?

If you look at CAT's information for Construction equipment (Heavy Equipment Caterpillar Warning Symbols) it is an indicator of engine failure.
