The red indicator light on the lower left of the dash of my D-17 series 3 is lit. It comes on whenever I press in the clutch. It wasn't doing this until I changed the oil filters, hydraulic and engine. Is this normal and why did it start now?

The lite tells you there is no/low pressure from the power director lube pump. When yiou step on the clutch the pump stops, so the lite should come on. Why it didnt before you changed the filter, I dont know. The sending unit for the lite is up there on the filter head with one wire going to it. HTH
