Hi Johnson, on the B414D that we owned the only things on the left side of the dash were the oil pressure gauge, glow plug indicator thru the metal cap with the holes in it and the light switch.

Our B414D was made in the UK and sold in Canada and it was one of the very early models. Later we had a 434, same tractor but newer sheet metal and all the analog instruments except the temperature gauge had been replaced by warning lights for generator and oil pressure.

Hi Johnson, the glow plug indicator was like a piece of a toaster element and it was covered with a stainless steel cap with holes in it so that you could see when the element glowed and it was time to engage the starter. Do you have an "L" handled glow plug switch on the right side of the dash or is the glow plugs activated by turning and pushing the ignition switch in like the 434?

Hi Johnson, I assume it is a gas engine B414 as the Diesel has only gauges no dash lights.
On the gas model there are 2 dash lights:
Oil pressure warning light on left hand side of dash near engine coolant temperature gauge. If it is on after engine starts this indicates low oil pressure or bad oil pressure sensor. SHOULD NOT RUN ENGINE WITH THIS LIGHT ON because if it is true low oil pressure severe damage will occur to engine.

The other light is on right side of dash by ignition switch and it is called the ignition warning light and should come on when the ignition switch is turned to the on position and should go out when the engine starts and the generator starts charging. If this light stays on when the engine is running, indicates the generator is not charging properly or maybe someone replaced the generator with an alternator and did not wire up the light correctly.

Hope this helps
JimB

Sorry that i left out some things. The b414 is a diesel. The light stays on when the tractor is not running. the light is located on the left side of the panel.

Is your battery being discharged? You need to make sure that's not your low oil pressure light.
Go to your local Case/IH dealer and look in one of their service manuals to see what those lights are for. They may even zerox a copy of that page for you. Hal
